The Japanese part seems to be a reference to Autumnal Equinox Day (秋分の日)

However, various webpages refer to the Bon Festival as the equivalent of the Chinese Qingming:
日本的”清明节“---盂兰盆节:在日本,“盂兰盆节”是规模仅次于元旦的盛大活动,...

and the Bon Festival is in July or August (in different parts of Japan) rather than September.

Probably best to leave out the reference to Japan.

Regarding "beginning of April" -- I would say that makes it sound like 1st of April (which would be incorrect)
Editor: I guess a number of pages would refer to All Soul's Day as the western equivalent of qingming.
Diff:
- 清明節 清明节 [Qing1 ming2 jie2] /Qingming (Pure brightness or tomb-sweeping) festival, beginning of April in China, September in Japan, 3 day long celebration for the dead/
+ 清明節 清明节 [Qing1 ming2 jie2] /Qingming or Pure Brightness Festival or Tomb Sweeping Day, celebration for the dead (in early April)/
