Sakura Spring Festival 2024

We are excited to announce that Yokota Air Base is scheduled to open its gates to the local community for the annual Sakura Spring Festival 2024 on April 6.

 

Yokota’s Sakura festival is an opportunity to celebrate the arrival of springtime, while serving as an opportunity to strengthen ties between the base and local Japanese communities. This year offers live music performances, food vendors, games for all ages, and views of flowering sakura blossoms throughout the venue. We encourage all attendees to celebrate this local tradition as a way for Yokota and local Japanese residents to continue strengthening the invaluable bond of friendship they share.

 

Yokota AB officials are continually assessing public health conditions and will evaluate the most up-to-date information and procedures to ensure the safety of our personnel and festival attendees.

 

We look forward to celebrating the long-standing and close bond between our base populace and the local community. See you at Sakura Spring Festival 2024!
