Vancouver WA Spring Events
Spring is in full bloom with flora-inspired events—like Lilac Days at Hulda Klager Gardens and the Sakura Festival at Clark College—and bouquets lure visitors to the Vancouver Farmers Market and other markets around the county. Sports teams, such as the Ridgefield Raptors, begin their seasons, and big acts start to dot the calendar at Cascades Amphitheater.

Our Favorite Spring Activities:
- Explore the historic grounds of the Hulda Klager Lilac Gardens, where hundreds of varieties of lilacs bloom each spring.
- The Vancouver Farmers Market goes back to Saturdays and Sundays, with other markets sprouting up around the county, including in Ridgefield, Battle Ground, Camas, and East Vancouver.
- The Sakura Festival celebrates Vancouver's sister-city relationship with Joyo, Japan among the colorful cherry trees—the same 100 Shirofugen cherry trees that were gifted to us more than 25 years ago.
- Classic rock superstars, big country names, and trending artists start to take the stage at the Cascades Amphitheater.
- As the weather gets nicer, sports seasons begin to take shape—catch a Ridgefield Raptors baseball game or sign up for a community race, like the Couve Clover Run.
