Virtual Festival Info
Sponsorship Opportunities
As the largest Japanese cultural festival in the Southeast, JapanFest offers a unique opportunity for marketing and publicity. With attendance averaging around 20,000, JapanFest patrons are a diverse group. Given the variety of artistic performances, the Japanese food vendors and shopping for Japanese products, the festival is popular with all ages, from young families to those who love Japanese anime. Demographic surveys show the festival goers to be consistently diverse in racial and ethnic background. While JapanFest has a loyal following which shows up annually, there is also a large percentage of first-time attendees, so the festival is always reaching a new audience.
