Time and again, the Nisei Week Japanese Festival is on L.A.’s “best” lists for the year, and why is no surprise. With a big parade, Ondo dancing, delicious eats, art exhibits, and a festival vibe all through Little Tokyo for the week, the celebration is always a local favorite. Plan your visit and check out the dozens of shows and events in their online booklet or just take a ride downtown and wander through.
