arts & culture

Festival Matsuri returns as one of the city’s most immersive celebrations of Japanese culture, transforming Moll de la Fusta into a lively festival space filled with performances, food, crafts and activities for all the family to enjoy. Now an established fixture on the calendar, the event brings together many of the elements associated with a traditional Japanese summer festival.

This year promises top artists and performances, a number of exhibitors, Japanese food and drink, a kids’ area and more from Bon Odori dancing to Taiko drumming and Japanese painting. There'll also be a range of stalls selling arts and crafts, workshops for children, and a selection of Japanese cuisine on offer.

We’d recommend getting your tickets in advance to secure your spot there. Check out the full programme online.
