There’ll be plenty of entertainment on stage, NPO booths and of course plenty of tasty scran from a variety of local eateries, including old Deep Kyoto favorites like Sunny Place, Falafel Garden and Mikoan. Here’s the word from the organisers::

The biggest vegetarian festival in Japan… Thanks to everyone’s support, this year marks our 6th year. We hope to have another a great turnout this year! The Festival Philosophy In Japan, with 1 out of 2 people becoming victims of cancer, many people are reflecting on their dietary habits.

    Sigh… I’ll be missing this AND the jazz because of a weekend trip. It was such a good opportunity, too…
