Tochio Pride Market Tourism & Specialty Fair and Aburage Festival

About this event

The 'Tourism and Local Specialties Fair Tochio Pride Market & Aburage Festival' will be held, bringing together famous products and specialties from the Tochio region of Nagaoka City, Niigata Prefecture. A large selection of premium products, starting with the famous Tochio aburage (deep-fried tofu), will gather at the roadside station. In particular, the live demonstration of making a 'giant aburage' the size of a tatami mat and a tasting event for 1,000 people is a popular feature that draws long queues every year. Numerous local aburage shops will open stalls, offering a wonderful opportunity to compare the unique varieties of aburage. In addition, there will be a 'Bazaar Corner' featuring Tochio's local sake, sweets, rice, and more, as well as a 'Play Corner' for children, making it an event the whole family can enjoy all day. With stalls from friendship cities and outdoor stage performances, it is a valuable opportunity to fully experience the charm of Tochio.
