The East San Gabriel Valley Japanese Community Center is excited to partner once again with Plaza West Covina and the City of West Covina to present the 2024 Cherry Blossom Festival on Saturday April 13! This annual festival marks the beginning of spring; the newly emerging blossoms represent hope beauty and new life.

Join us at Plaza West Covina from 3pm to 8pm and learn more about Japanese culture, indulge in exquisite Japanese and Japanese-American flavors, enjoy traditional music and dance performances, shop at an array of different vendors, and watch Japanese taiko drums and martial arts performances.
