About this event
This is a haiku competition held in Yosano Town, a place closely associated with Yosa Buson. Participants across a wide range of ages from elementary school students to adults take part, aiming to promote and develop haiku culture and expand circles of interaction. It also functions as a place for haiku enthusiasts to converse with one another. This event will be held at the Yosano Town Lifelong Learning Center Chiyukan. According to past event information, the 15th competition will be held on Sunday, November 29, 2026, positioned as an event suited to the autumn season. Initiatives such as recruiting participants for a ginko (haiku-composing stroll) tour (including accommodation) on the day before the event are also implemented so that attendees can enjoy the world of haiku more deeply.
