Experience Japan, April 23rd 2017

Once again, we'll be taking part in Experience Japan on April 23rd at Farmleigh House in the Phoenix Park in Dublin.

Held every year in April, Experience Japan is the main Japanese hanami or cherry blossom viewing festival held in Ireland each year. It's sponsored by the Japanese embassy in Ireland and this year it's being held on April 23rd and we'll be taking part by doing some demonstrations of our martial arts. It's a great day out, averaging 20,000 to 30,000 visitors.

Our event page for this on Facebook is here. while the overall festival page is here.
