Kashima City Specialty Products Festival

About this event

Held in conjunction with the autumn grand festival "Ohitaki" of Yutoku Inari Shrine, this exhibition and sale event brings together local specialties from Kashima City. Kashima's proud specialties will be lined up, including seafood processed products such as kamaboko fish cakes, nori seaweed, and soy sauce-pickled mudskippers (mutsugoro), as well as narazuke pickles from long-established pickle shops. In addition, sake and shochu from eight sake breweries in Kashima City will also be available. For traditional crafts, visitors can watch demonstrations of the making of bags and wallets woven with Kashima Nishiki fabric, as well as masks used in the folk performing art "Menburyu," with fascinating items available for purchase. Furthermore, Ureshino tea from neighboring Ureshino City and croquettes made with Takezaki crab caught in Tara Town will also make an appearance. In 2026, events such as a garapon raffle and visitor giveaways are also scheduled, offering opportunities to win 2027 zodiac keychains and coupons that can be used within the venue.
