The Ichiyo Sakura (Cherry Blossom) Festival is a major event in Asakusa Kannon-ura that attracts big crowds every year. Take the chance to enjoy the yaezakura cherry blossoms in full bloom.
Important note: The oiran (courtesan) parade that the festival is most known for will not take place in 2026.
What happens?
This year, instead of the Edo Yoshiwara Oiran Dochu parade, the venue will be moved to Fuji Park and there will be a flea market and performances, including kabuki shows and traditional Japanese instruments.
