'Japanaroo' is a new initiative by 'Japanaroo Platform', an innovative public-private partnership, to celebrate multiculturalism and promote exchange with Japan in Australia.
It will provide an ecosystem under which multiple Japan-related activities will be
developed and rolled out, enabling a wide range of interaction and cultural dialogue. This
ecosystem will create opportunities to discover and access Japanese culture, businesses
and brands. Japanaroo will be a unique way to enable exciting cultural experiences for
Australians, enrich people’s lives, and contribute towards business innovation and job
creation nationwide.
Japanaroo 2021 in its inaugural form will be held from 20 August to 2 October 2021. During this period, government organisations, community groups, non-profit organisations as well as shops, restaurants and other businesses will organise special events related to Japan across Sydney.
Proposed events include Japanese cultural demonstrations, special dining experiences at restaurants as well as pop-up events to showcase 'Made-in-Japan' products and tourism. Some of the events will be held online.
Currently, over 60 entities have signed up to hold events as part of Japanaroo 2021.
