About this spot

The 2026 Tosayamada Festival is held on Saturday, August 1, at the shopping street and Citizens' Ground in Tosayamada, Kami City. This summer festival, long rooted in the local community, features taiko drum performances, stage events, and programs put on by local groups, centered around the shopping street. As the sun sets and the paper lanterns light up, the area fills with families and local residents, letting you experience the warm, homely atmosphere unique to a Kami City festival. Strolling the street lined with night stalls is also one of the pleasures of the festival.

Traffic restrictions may be in place around the venue on the day, so using public transportation is reassuring. It can get cooler in the evening, so something light to layer on is comfortable. Please check in advance whether the event will proceed in case of bad weather.

Best time to visit
