SUNRISE FEST is the Annual All-Day Memorial Festival for the Victims of the Japan’s Earthquake/Tsunami attacked on March 11th 2011.
This is also the Biggest event that Stairway to the Dream Ent organizes.
For the last 2 events, we had more than 30 multi types and cultural performers including BANDS, DANCERS, SINGERS, etc who are Actively and Positively chasing their Dreams based in NYC.
We have also had about 30 companies sponsored for the festival; therefore, we could have gotten some great and valuable goods such as Beers, Snacks, Japanese Clothes, etc to sell to make donations.
The festival ran from noon till the midnight and we had more than 600 participants and about $5000 donations.
For this time, we decided to have the night event only due to the change of location and other reasons.
We call it “Music Marathon for JAPAN” and there will be 8 BANDS performing!
The main purpose of doing SUNRISE FEST is not to Forget the Disaster, to keep united as we did when the disaster happened 2 years ago, and to keep appreciating those Bonds of Friendship Japan could make with everyone in this Generation.
Although there were many problems came up after the Earthquake attacked such as the Nuclear issues, we will not presume to hold up those issues to relate to this festival.
Instead, we will simply have this Festival as “A Day for You & Japan” in order for the people to feel and think about 3.11 and Japan.
