Parade
The Easter On Parade is one of those classic Richmond moments. Where else can you get the experience of watching thousands dressed up in their Sunday best, topped with extravagant, rather nutso bonnets stroll down a beautiful tree-lined street?
The once-a-year chance to walk down Monument Ave. is already a big draw. But the people-watching is the main attraction - and who are we kidding, the puppy petting too.
There will be games, crafts, food, music, art, street performers and more. Stick around for the Pet and People Bonnet Showcases at 3 and 4pm!

Blooms
It's finally time to be outside again. The mere thought makes us want to run singing through a field of flowers. Or you could just go to Lewis Ginter’s annual celebration of spring, A Million Blooms, beginning this weekend. Warmer temps + millions of flowers = your much needed dose of spring.
Go now to see hyacinths, crocuses, daffodils and flowering cherries. As this is a months-long event, return later in May for peonies, iris, azaleas and pitcher plants. Regardless, you’ll have ample Instagram opportunities. Or, you know, peaceful moments for your soul.
