Hachijuri Market (Sanjo and Minamiaizu Exchange Market)

About this event

"Roads connect, towns meet." This exchange market brings Sanjo, Minamiaizu, and Oku-Aizu closer together following the opening of Route 289 "Hachijurigoe." In addition to enjoying food, drinks, and shopping, visitors can also experience hands-on markets such as workshops. From Sanjo, vendors such as Hocho Kobo Tadafusa (kitchen knives), Mura no Kajiya, 96[KURO] (black-dyed cutlery), KUMORI COFFEE, Food Kobo Yuko (sasa dango and onigiri), BIAN BIAN CALLING, SANJO PUBLISHING, and 168cm Studio (silkscreen WS) will have stalls. Meanwhile, from Minamiaizu, Tadami, Showa Village, and Yanaizu, exhibitors such as the Minamiaizu Town Tourism and Local Products Association (sake), Minamiaizu Mountain Brewing (craft beer), Ajitsuke Mutton Kebab Cafe, Ki Kobo MEGURO (wood marquetry WS), and Akabeko painting experiences are scheduled to participate. Some booths will only be open on the 21st or the 22nd. A chair exhibition created through collaboration between Sanjo and Minamiaizu is also one of the highlights. The organizer is the Hachijurigoe Highway Utilization Council. Please note that through-traffic on Hachijurigoe is not yet possible in 2026, so access by car requires an alternative route. Closing times differ depending on the date of the event.
