The new year means a lot of festivities and the Japanese Chamber of Commerce of Southern California recently held its annual New Year Celebration Festival in Little Tokyo Los Angeles! Held in Little Tokyo's Weller Court and Japanese Village Plaza, this event always had entertainment, food, cultural activities, and even a sake fest. There was also a kimono contest & fashion show, an ondo dance, as well as several performances. This event always proves to be lots of fun, and we have a gallery for everyone to check out below! While the festivities are over, you can still experience it vicariously through said gallery, and maybe make plans to attend next year! We hope that everyone had a great 2024, and will have an even better 2025! One thing is for sure, we have lots more to show you here at A-to-J! All photos by Ivan Aburto.
