What Our People Have To Say

We constantly strive to curate a Festival experience special and memorable for everyone to enjoy. Here are some highlights from over the the years.

“Right from the start our community was so excited about having the Vancouver Cherry Blossom Festival come to our neighbourhood. Immediately community groups and artists started buzzing and planning on an authentic Sunset on Fraser event. The organizers of the Festival were an amazingly friendly, experienced, and driven group. It was a pleasure to plan with them and the residents in the area were thrilled to participate and attend.”

Rob Nijjar
Sunset on Fraser Business Association

“I heard the choir sing the new cherry blossom song at Sakura Days Japan Fair and I wanted to share it with the READ-Ability Stories program – a program providing services for individuals with developmental disabilities. It was lovely and especially sweet, everyone loved it!”

Linda Jones
Surrey City Centre Library

“The whole idea of this event is to get us to all pause and appreciate the ethereal, ephemeral, delicate beauty of the cherry blossoms…and by so doing, to realize the importance of living in the moment and not taking life for granted.”

Steve Whysall
Vancouver Sun
