About this event
Held at the Wasamachi-dori Shopping Street in the Oasa area of Kitahiroshima Town, Hiroshima Prefecture, the "Wasamachi-dori Autumn Festival" is organized every year to revitalize this area, which holds history as a post town. Located along the transit route where fish was carried from Hamada Port in the San'in region to Hiroshima, mackerel and other seafood circulated through the region since ancient times. Drawing on this association with mackerel, the event aims to revitalize the local shopping street. It is an event where visitors can discover various joys of autumn, such as the autumn of art, appetite, reading, sports, and harvest. On the day, an Ebisu-ko ceremony, mochi rice cake throwing, limited sales of 100 mackerel sushi rolls, and an after-party inside the Fukumitsu Sake Brewery cellar are planned.
