About this event
One of the three major festivals of Yanai, this autumn festival is held annually on November 23 (national holiday) to give thanks for the autumn harvest. Around the Butterfly Arena, events such as the "Agriculture, Forestry, and Fisheries Exhibition" and the "Welfare Market" will be held, where visitors can enjoy delicious food made with local ingredients. In addition, the "Yanai Daifuku Mochi Maki" (rice-cake throwing ceremony) will be held at the end of the festival this year as well. The biggest highlight is the "Hanagasa Dance" performed on Reitoro Avenue, where a beautiful contest of floral hats unfolds accompanied by the chiming of bells.
