Christmas Market Kumamoto 2026 Yatsushiro Venue

About this event

Christmas Market Kumamoto 2026 Yatsushiro Venue, held at the plaza in front of Omatsuri Dendenkan in Yatsushiro City, Kumamoto Prefecture, is an event cherished as a winter tradition. Wooden stalls called huttes will line the venue, where visitors can enjoy mulled wine, hot chocolate, and delicious food. This marks the first time the event is being held in Yatsushiro City, organized with the hope of bringing smiles to areas affected by the Kumamoto earthquake. There is also a plan to decorate the venue's main symbol tower with bamboo lanterns crafted by local children from Yatsushiro, creating a warm atmosphere united with the local community. A crowdfunding campaign for venue setup costs is also being conducted, realizing a special Christmas market with the cooperation of local residents.
