“Washington D.C. was one of ANA’s first U.S. gateways. It was pivotal in helping us strive for an interconnected world and bridging an understanding between people and cultures. We are proud to support the National Cherry Blossom Festival and create these inclusive community events that bring memories that last a lifetime and celebrate the relationship between Japan and the U.S.,” said Junko Yazawa, Senior Vice President of ANA.
The 2023 Festival honors the historic gift of 3,000 cherry trees from Tokyo to Washington, D.C. What started as a simple ceremony in 1927 has grown into one of the world’s great celebrations of spring, creating joyful moments and memories throughout four weeks of food, fun, culture, and entertainment among the beautiful cherry blossom trees.
