Etchu Yao Owara Wind Festival

Singing and dancing with rich expressiveness and elegance.
As the early autumn breeze blows, the curtain for the Owara Wind Festival opens. The sight of performers in matching yukata peeking out slightly from under their hats is truly fantastical. After dusk, the soft lights of the bonbori, lined along the residential streets, illuminate the surroundings. They sing and dance, each showcasing their town's tradition and individuality, while people drawn in by the melancholic tones of the town float follow one by one, creating a scene where orange lights emerge from the darkness, worth seeing at least once. 9/1, 2 at 17:00, 9/3 at 19:00.
