Hi everyone,
Please read the whole post as there is important COMMUNITY information 🙏
As some of you may know, I run lots of events in the Blue Mountains. I have been running events for 16 years in the Mountains. I give back to the community by supporting local charities and help in anyway I can. I currently run the below events every month with no grants or funding.
Blackheath Growers Market
Magpie Up Style Market
Springwood Growers Market
Leura Produce and Artisan Market (currently looking for a new home) 🤞🤞🤞🫶
I also run Twilight Markets every season
Last year with small Japan in Australia we ran a mini Japanese festival inside Magpie Up Style Markets everyone LOVED 🥰 it
I’m proud that Every Event I run is Free Entry!
This year I am teaming up with Small Japan in Australia, Japanese born Ayaka who now calls The Blue Mountains home with her Australian husband and 2 children. Ayaka runs a (not for profit) called Small Japan in Australia to share her love of her home country with her new home in Blue Mountains Australia with everyone.
We have seen how unhappy the community is that Airbnb is sponsoring other events so we won’t be asking them to sponsor our Blue Mountains Japanese Sakura Festival.
We do however need sponsors because we want to make this amazing festival FREE ENTRY.
In Sydney and around Australia entry for festivals like this cost around $75 per ticket. To make our Blue Mountains Japanese Festival FREE ENTRY we need Sponsors.
We are currently looking for businesses who might be interested in supporting the festival as sponsors. We will in turn PROMOTE your business on our Banners, flyers, social media, radio and on Japanese Lanterns written in Japanese displayed around the festival on the day.
If you or someone you know owns a business and might be open to supporting us, I would be truly grateful if you could reach out.
If you know me or my events it’s going to be awesome 🤩
Myself, All Events Markets and Festivals and Ayaka, Small Japan in Australia are truly grateful for any support. If you can’t sponsor you can still help by sharing our event with family and friends and invite them to visit on Saturday 3rd October 2026 for our Blue Mountains Japanese Sakura Festival. We also encourage everyone to catch the train to Lawson for the festival to avoid any traffic issues.
Thank you 🙏
Nicole and Ayaka
