About this event
The "4th KUMA Fest" will be held on Tuesday (public holiday), September 22, 2026, in Nishiki Town, Kumamoto Prefecture. Set across the entire parking lot area in front of the Nishiki Town Office, it is a major regional festival as an all-day festival where you can run, eat, and dance. Starting at 10:00 AM, a packed program is prepared until the evening finale. The morning kicks off with the LOCAL WAVE project, and from the afternoon, performances by Ryutokai and running races open to a wide range of ages from preschoolers to adults will begin. There are also classic festival games such as bread-eating races and candy-eating races, which are fun even just to watch. The evening portion is also exciting, with non-stop performances even after dark, such as a live performance by WARSAN starting at 18:30 and a night bubble show from 19:40. With street sports day events, stage/live projects, and food stall/vending projects, the content allows you to fully enjoy the local vibrancy. Presentations linked with the Kumagawa Railroad and the local community are also among the highlights.
