The Festival showcases a wide variety of Japanese performing arts, attractions, and vendor booths and has grown to be one of the largest Asian cultural events in the area. In fact, the last year’s Festival held in November generated the attendance exceeding 3,000 people. This allowed JAO to donate the net proceed to regions in Japan struck by the earthquake and tsunami.
JAO and its members are committed to conduct an Annual Orlando Japan Festival to vitalize Japanese art, music, culture, and education through Japan Festival in the Orlando community. The proceeds from the Festival will not only help Earthquake/Tsunami victims. Additionally, it will also go to support local organizations and individuals in their endeavors to further the excellence of Japanese visual and performing arts, culture and education.
