About this spot

The Raiden Festival - Tomi Dosukoi SUNSUN is held around the Tanaka shopping street in Tomi City. In 2026 it takes place on Saturday, August 1, with the shopping street coming alive with sumo-related events and local dances in honor of Raiden Tameemon, the legendary grand sumo champion from this area who was active in the Edo period. Food stalls line the street, and performances by local groups and children are also among the highlights. This course is designed so that after visiting Unno-juku and other spots related to Raiden during the day, you enjoy the lively shopping street at night as the culmination of the day.
