The venues, centered around the city hall, expand to the historic castle ruins park and the bustling shopping district. At each location, you'll find gourmet food stalls, unique local crafts for sale, and play areas for children, offering a wide variety of activities. Everywhere you go, you'll experience the warm hospitality of the community. A special feature of this event is the exclusive opportunity to join the Awa Odori dance with local performers. Instead of just watching, for this day, spectators can join the circle and feel a sense of unity. A recommended way to enjoy the festival is to stroll through the shopping street stalls during twilight, savor local delicacies, and finally join everyone in the Awa Odori.
