Ikebana Workshop with Yoka Suzuki



Japanese people have a deep love for flowers.
Ikebana is the Japanese art of flower arrangement which is known for its minimal flower design. It has a history of around 600years. By arranging flowers, we attempt to express the beauty and life of nature.
Zen and Ikebana have a deep connection. The joy of Ikebana is letting go of unnecessary thoughts and attachments and focusing on yourself here and now.
Why not pick up some flowers?The experience of Ikebana inspires new creativity and freedom of mind.
What You Will Learn
You will be demonstrated a basic Ikebana style step by step which you can follow. You’ll be amazed at how a few flowers and branches can create such a large piece of art.
What You Can Bring Home
No experience needed—just come as you are.
Take home your Ikebana arrangement, plus a reusable plastic vase and a kenzan (a flower pin holder used to secure stems), so you can continue practicing at home.
Special Notes:
* You will need a separate HYPER JAPAN Festival 2026 ticket for the same date.
* Suitable for beginners from 12 years old.
