About this event
Held to commemorate the establishment of "Kagawa Citizens' Day," the "Ando Pond Festival" takes place at Ando Pond / Salt Lake Hiketa in Hiketa, Higashikagawa City. During the event period, there are plenty of activities for participants to enjoy, including a live filleting show of fresh Hiketa yellowtail and a weight-guessing contest where participants guess the yellowtail's weight on the spot. In particular, Hiketa yellowtail and Ado Milk will be sold at special prices for three days only, making it a prime opportunity to savor local flavors. On the first day, November 20, a sea bream fishing tournament with luxury prizes and a weight-guessing contest will also be held, enlivening the venue even further. Commemorating December 3, the day Kagawa Prefecture was established, as "Kagawa Citizens' Day," this festival aims to deepen residents' interest in and understanding of their home prefecture while fostering attachment and pride. The event features both pre-registration programs and open public programs, allowing visitors to experience the festival in various ways.
