In Berkeley, the Berkeley Buddhist Temple and the Berkeley Higashi Honganji Buddhist Temple alternate the Obon Odori. This year's Obon Odori in Berkeley will be held at the Berkeley Buddhist Temple at 6:30 p.m., Saturday, July 12, at 2121 Channing Way.
Bon Odori is a style of dancing performed during Obon. With colorful lanterns lighting the area, we dance to traditional Japanese music to show appreciation for those who have passed before us.
Everyone is welcome. We hope to see you all there!
