About
For one full day in summer, Takahagi Station-mae Street and Honcho Street host the town's festival. Floats and portable shrines parade and show off against each other, and lines of residents dance through the streets. There are dance acts and more on stage, plus food stalls and sports booths, so everyone from small children to adults can join in. It's the one day a year when the whole town gets together to make summer memories. The festival is organised by the Takahagi Festival Executive Committee, whose office is at the Takahagi City Tourist Association. Drones may not be flown or used for filming at the venue.
