In the current press release, the Düsseldorf Marketing & Tourism GmbH writes:

"The encounter and cultural festival as part of the Japan Day, which was canceled due to a severe weather warning, cannot be rescheduled this year. The Japanese fireworks will also not take place this year. The organizers will soon begin preparations for Japan Day 2007.

Hundreds of participants had spent a year preparing for the festival, and they cannot be coordinated again at short notice for another date. The Japanese picture fireworks will also have to be skipped this year. At possible alternative dates, the pyrotechnicians from Japan were unavailable due to commitments in Japan.

The organizers (City of Düsseldorf, State of NRW, Japanese community) will soon begin preparations for Japan Day 2007. It is scheduled to take place on June 2.

Due to an official severe weather warning, the encounter and cultural festival as part of Japan Day had to be canceled at short notice on May 20. The fireworks were also prohibited from being launched for safety reasons due to predicted severe wind gusts."
