About this event

The Jobaragawa River Hangi Festival is a traditional water event held in Kanzaki City, Saga Prefecture. It is an event accessible to all generations using 'hangi', traditional vessels that have been used since ancient times for harvesting water caltrops (water chestnuts). In addition to pre-registered competitions, there are also family-oriented events open for same-day participation, allowing visitors to enjoy regional culture and nature. The unique on-the-water experience using hangi will be an unforgettable memory for participants.
