About this event
Gorgeously decorated boat floats parade through the streets, competing in their beauty. Hand dancing by large crowds of citizens follows, and energetic shouts fitting for a festival of coastal people echo throughout the town. It is a community-rooted festival conveying the deep affection of coastal locals for the sea. This year's slogan is 'Festival Restart (Saikido): A Connecting Festival,' aiming to connect to the future, connect with the community, and connect person to person. Exhibitions of past photographs and more will also be held.
