Lincoln Japan Festival is an annual celebration of Japanese Culture which takes place in venues and outdoor spaces across Lincoln City Centre. The festival engages people of all ages and backgrounds with a focus on the local community.

The event included cultural workshops for both young people and adults, theatre, live music, art exhibitions, a gaming event and film screenings. This year's festival which welcomed regular attendees as well as a large number of newcomers, provided audiences with an immersive experience of Japanese culture and arts, enabling them to learn more about Japan in a relaxed and friendly environment.
