After a long winter, cherry blossom season can’t come soon enough. The Richmond Cherry Blossom Festival returns in-person this year for a celebration of sakura and Japanese culture and to showcase the splendor of the 255 Akebono cherry trees in Garry Point Park plus to celebrate the generous donation of those trees to the city from the BC Wakayama Kenjin Kai, the Wakayama Prefectural Association. The association supports the legacy and heritage of Japanese families that immigrated to Steveston from Wakayama Prefecture in Japan.
