2011 Sakura Days Japan Fair

Be immersed into Japanese culture and art at the Sakura Days Japan Fair in the VanDusen Botanical Gardens in Vancouver on April 2 - 3, 2011. First held in 2008, this annual festival is a celebration of the Cherry Blossoms, a traditional Japanese icon. Vancouver's Canadian-Japanese heritage goes back over a hundred years and its Cherry Blossoms were given to the city by Japanese consul, Muneo Tanabe, in 1958. Today, those Cherry trees number over 37,000. Celebrate the Cherry Blossoms and Japanese culture at the Sakura Days Japan Fair with blossoms, food, performances and more. The profits from this year's event will be donated to the Japanese Red Cross.
