2026 ENA Minoji no Minori Festival

About this event

The '2026 ENA Minoji no Minori Festival' will be held for two days on Saturday, September 26, and Sunday, September 27, 2026, along Ena Station Avenue in Ena City, Gifu Prefecture. At this autumn festival, local specialties and seasonal flavors will be lined up, filling the venue with liveliness and smiles. Visitors can also enjoy traditional dance performances and stage events, experiencing all the 'minori' (harvest and bounty) of Ena. Ena Station Avenue will become a gourmet street, featuring Gohei Fest and Gohei Road where visitors can enjoy goheimochi. On Saturday, September 26, the 'Minoji no Minori Aruki' mikoshi portable shrine procession, which had been suspended since COVID, will make its comeback, and the popular 3-on-3 street basketball tournament will also take place. The powerful impact of tradition and the passionate energy of youth will merge into a special day where the entire town comes together in excitement. With plenty of hands-on experience zones and photo corners, it is a two-day event for families to enjoy. Furthermore, this year features a 'Rally Japan' PR area and a wrapped train of the Akechi Railway, which served as a filming location for the popular drama 'VIVANT,' appearing as a one-coin train.
