Okayama Folk Performing Arts Festival 2026

About this event

Traditional folk performing arts carefully passed down across various regions of the prefecture gather in one place for live demonstrations. From Mimasaka City, the "Kamiyama Shrine Lion Dance" will perform a valiant dance. Other compelling programs scheduled include Kagamino Town's "Fuse Shrine Rice Planting Festival," Bizen City's "Kamino Shrine Lion Dance," and Takahashi City's "Bitchu Kagura." This is a rare opportunity to casually enjoy powerful dances and familiar musical tones up close, experiencing the region's rooted traditional culture. Admission is free.
