In addition, famous apples from the sister city of Ueda in Nagano Prefecture will also be on sale. Highlights of the event include a Fuyu persimmon peeling contest and a charity sale of prize-winning persimmons from the Fuyu Persimmon Competition. Furthermore, flea markets and food & beverage stalls will create a lively atmosphere. Stage events are also abundant, enlivening the venue with powerful martial arts performances by the Sanada Samurai Troupe, Japanese taiko drumming, and Yaccho dance performances.
