Issei Day 2023 - A Tribute to the Seniors of our Community

Registration is CLOSED.

The Board of Directors of the Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre extends an invitation to Issei Day on Sunday, October 1, 2023, and would like to welcome all who are 70 years of age and older.

This year will be the 61st year of celebrating Issei Day. We are so excited to welcome you back and to gather in the Kobayashi Hall to celebrate this annual event. The day is full of activities, with entertainment of songs, odori, and sing-alongs. As usual, there will be a wonderful and tasty bento served during the intermission.

The program begins at 2pm and concludes around 4:30pm. So that we can accommodate everyone with seating and a bento, we require that everyone pre-register. Registration will open on September 1, and the deadline will be Friday, September 22. Please have a look at our website in August for more information. It is wonderful to see so many of our seniors attend this event, but there is a maximum capacity to ensure everyone can sit, relax and enjoy the afternoon.

Don’t delay - registration will open on September 1st, and the deadline on September 22nd! We look forward to seeing you.
