About this spot

This is Yagoro Densetsu no Sato (弥五郎伝説の里), the venue for the Furusato Osumi Festival. The festival begins at 6:00 PM, featuring stage events, performances by the Osumi Yagoro Taiko drummers (大隅弥五郎太鼓), and a prize raffle. Enjoy browsing the food stalls and feeling the evening breeze as you take in the lively atmosphere unique to a local summer festival. It's a relaxed stretch of time where you can watch the events unfold right up until the fireworks near the end.

Tips

The festival begins at 6:00 PM. Since the fireworks are launched only for a short time near the end, secure a spot with plenty of time to spare so you don't miss it. It's handy to bring cash for shopping at the food stalls.
