Arigato, Thank You Sydney!, thank you all of you who transformed a trip to the City into an imaginary travel to Japan, at least for one magic day!
It’s Time to wrap-up, It’s Time to thank everyone and It’s Time to remember a few important details.
At J Culture Sydney/LOVATO&PARTNERS (Production Company), we wanted to thank everyone who has been involved in our "Big, Bold, Unique, Stylish and Meaningful" Day of Events
Everyone who took part of the ""JAPAN EXPO"*** / "GANBARE!"*** / "OPEN MIC TALKS - Inspiring Ideas"*** / "Tea Garden"(Art Installation) Tea Ceremony and the JAPANAROO A Festive Season Concert" - ***
Yes, we wanted to celebrate, we wanted to see everyone happy getting together again, to be part of something different, something special, and of course we want now the rest of the world to know about it!

It seemed to be too far from reality and just a dream to be on stage back again, back on the console desk and back in a full swing production mode - a feeling that we were all missing out -big time- for nearly 2 years, challenging from every angle, and against all odds, regulations, global pandemic’s restrictions cancellations, postponements, limited resources, personnel and funds, ..We made it!
It has been a hardworking 10 months journey, but it feels so good..
What a Day it was! A 'hell ‘of a Day :) !! A full day of Japanese events, Travel.Food.Arts.Dance,Music
We made it! We made it together. We made it as a collective, as a creative group of talented and passionate human beings.
We are proud of you all, we are proud of ourselves, but most importantly we are humble enough to recognise the magnitude of this feat, our faults, little mishaps and errs, offering our best possible response to basically any problem, to take responsibility of our mistakes, but also to take credit for the best of our achievement.
Hence, we want to acknowledge all of you and remind everyone else that that they must credit everyone involved, if possible absolutely everyone: our Director, Producer, Talent, Production Teams, Stagehands and Production Crews, Volunteers, Collaborating Artists, VIP and Official Government participants and our Sponsors, for all their support, help, time and dedication contributing to "JAPANAROO A Festive Season Concert" - "GANBARE!" - "JAPAN EXPO" - "OPEN MIC TALKS - Inspiring Ideas" – SEE FULL CREDITS Below.

Stay tuned for more new projects coming up in 2022, ( FYI ”In partnership with The Sydney Opera House, our JAPAN SPECTACULAR’s brand new show “Fire is back once again at The Studio)
Anyway, bye for now, from the heart Merry Christmas and HNY 2022! Love you all!

The Team @ J Culture Sydney/LOVATO&PARTNERS (Production Company)
