Perth Japan Festival 2019

Posted on by admin

On March 9th, CLAIR Sydney ran a booth at the Perth Japan Festival 2019. The Perth Japan Festival is an event that showcases various aspects of Japanese culture, from traditional to modern pop culture, and this was the sixth year the festival has been held. On the day, there were performances such as Taiko drums, Yosakoi dance, and a jumbo sushi roll making event for children. Despite the rain, the entire plaza was filled with spectators who were eager to see the finale performance of Tsugaru-jamisen (shamisen music that originated from Tsugaru Peninsula) and Wadaiko (Japanese drums).

CLAIR Sydney staff promoted various Japanese tourist destinations, including Perth’s sister city Kagoshima City, at the booth of the Consulate General of Japan in Perth. The CLAIR Sydney staff also promoted upcoming events to be held in Japan such as the Rugby World Cup 2019, the Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games, and the World Masters Games 2021 Kansai. Although it was raining on the day, many visitors came to our booth to pick up brochures of travel destinations from all over Japan.

CLAIR Sydney will continue our activities in supporting sister city exchanges, promoting Japanese travel destinations, as well as promoting upcoming large-scale international sports events held in Japan.
