Dignitaries from across the globe gathered in Gilroy to celebrate two decades of foreign friendships.
In honor of the 20th anniversary of Gilroy's sister city relationship with Takko-Machi, Japan, representatives from three of Gilroy's six sister cities kicked off a week of festivities with a welcome dinner to the tune of Japanese drums, Portuguese brass, Suzuki violins and a Mariachi band. Divided by a language barrier, delegates from each of the sister cities communicated as best they could over dinner.
In this video, we meet some of the foreign visitors, show you the welcome dinner celebrations and introduce you to the city's coordinator for foreign relations.
