Yuzawa Flower Festival - April 29th


The end of the month is a long weekend here so no excuses not to get away and do something. Sunday 29th April is the Yuzawa Flower Festival and provides the perfect venue for those looking for a great day out. The weather is getting warmer around here and the cherry blossom trees are starting to bud. That weekend should be prime cherry blossom viewing time in this area. The Flower Festival takes place in Chuo Park in Yuzawa which has an abundance of trees that will hopefully be in bloom.

As well as enjoying the beauty of the cherry blossoms this is a chance to meet with the locals and celebrate the coming of spring. After a particularly heavy winter everyone in Snow Country is happy to see the flowers coming back and the weather getting warmer. There will be games on offer at the festival, presents for the children, food and drink, plenty of flowers of various types, dance performances and plenty of other attractions.

The opening ceremony kicks off at 10.30am, and as long as the weather cooperates it promises to be a fantastic day.
