Experience a little piece of Japan in Auckland.

With Love, JAPAN is a welcoming, hands-on Japanese culture day where families, friends and anyone curious about Japan can explore traditional arts, festival activities, food and local stalls.

Rather than simply watching, visitors can take part, create something and experience Japanese culture for themselves.

What to expect:

• Hands-on Japanese cultural sessions, including calligraphy, ikebana and tea ceremony

• Japanese festival activities and crafts for children

• Japanese food

• Local stalls featuring handmade items, products and services

• A friendly indoor event for all ages

Entry to the event is free, and no general admission booking is required.

Selected cultural sessions require separate booking, have limited spaces and may involve an additional fee. Please use the website link above to view the full event details and reserve a session.

No Japanese language ability or previous cultural experience is needed. Everyone is welcome.
