The annual sister city cultural event returns this month.

 

Cupertino will hold its 30th annual Cherry Blossom Festival 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. April 27-28 at Memorial Park, Stevens Creek Boulevard and Mary Avenue.

The weekend festival honors Cupertino’s sister city of Toyokawa, Japan and will offer visitors a chance to sample a wide selection of Japanese food and beverages, enjoy live entertainment programs and informative demonstrations throughout the day. Admission is free.

Festival proceeds will benefit the non-profit Cupertino Sister City Committee, which promotes friendship and student exchange programs between the two cities. Local non-profit organizations that support services for disadvantaged youth, sport, music and language programs will have booths at the event to help raise funds for their groups.

Visit the event website for a complete entertainment lineup schedule for both days and a link to a video recap of last year’s festival.
