Okaya Taiko Festival

Resound from the roof of Japan to the world.
"Okaya Taiko" festival held on August 13-14. The magnificent synchronized drumming takes place on a special stage that is 60 meters wide, truly the best in Japan! The powerful rhythm of the taiko resonates throughout the town. Events like the dance parade "MINAKOI Wassaka", which embodies the meaning of dancing together joyfully, will be available for breathtaking viewing and enjoyable participation. A handmade stage by local community groups, "Fureai Square", is also planned.
