Join the community-centered obon dancing with music and movement

About this spot

Held in the parking lot east of Kanda Town Hall, this annual summer obon dancing event is organized by the town's youth business leaders. In a friendly, community-focused atmosphere unlike large festivals, dancers form circles to music, and it becomes an event the entire community—children and adults alike—can enjoy together. This is a fitting way to end a summer evening, with the warmth and family spirit characteristic of a port town.
