2026 Japanese-American Friendship Festival

The Yokota Air Base mascot is displayed on a bouquet of flowers after it is revealed during a speech at Friendship Festival 2026, at Yokota Air Base, Japan, May 16, 2026. What began a half-century ago as a small community gathering now serves as a premier cross-cultural event in the region, acting as a powerful testament to the lifelong friendships and shared experiences forged between the U.S. and Japan.
