Description

On Sunday, May 18th, weโ€™ll be holding the Fuji (Wisteria) Festival in Ichinohe!
This seasonal event celebrates the stunning bloom of our local wisteria flowersโ€”featured on the new Japanese ยฅ5,000 bill and known from the popular anime Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba.

There will be:

  • Traditional performances

  • Local cuisine (yakitori, yakisoba, sweets, hittsumi soup)

  • Live DJing and music

  • Fun booths, bonsai displays, and even police motorcycle exhibits ๐Ÿ๐ŸŽถ

I'll also be there representing the Local Revitalization Team, offering tea and chatting casually with visitors.
Itโ€™s a great chance for travelers to experience rural Japan, and I believe it could be of interest to people visiting from Morioka, Hachinohe, or even further afield!

Feel free to share the event through your SNS channels or with those who may enjoy this kind of cultural experience.
