Venice Hongwanji Obon Festival Event (VHBT) - Obon or 'Festival of the Dead' is celebrated in Japanese-American communities all over the country in the middle of July or August. In America, Obon has become a key event festival for both the Buddhist temples and the local community, as well as a celebration of the rich Japanese-American cultural heritage. Obon features bon odori folk dancing, games, and lots of food. Our Annual Silent Auction opens on June 18th at 9:00 AM and closes at the end of our Obon Festival. To see items up for bid or to place a bid starting on June 18th, please visit www.32auctions.com/2022VHBTObon
Our main food offering is Mamechan’s Obon Dinner, led by our acclaimed chef Chris Ono which includes a generous portion of Chicken Teriyaki, wonton, andagi, Tsukemono and rice. Pre-orders are recommended at www.givebutter.com/mamechan. Everyone is welcome to join.
