Founded in 2012
The first Japan Festival Boston was hosted in 2012, celebrating the 100th anniversary of the gift of cherry blossom trees from Tokyo to Washington D.C. Since then, we have grown to become the largest Japanese festival on the East Coast.
A Real Matsuri
Join us in our annual celebration of Japanese culture and enjoy food, music, dancing, vendors, community organizations, interactive workshops, cosplay fashion shows, and so much more.
Bringing New England together
Japan Festival Boston is run entirely by a group of dedicated volunteers. All the money we raise goes directly into running the festival. Help us continue the tradition for another 100 years to come. Donate to Japan Festival Boston today and become a part of the community.
