SUMMARY:Toukasan Yukata Festival
DESCRIPTION:Hiroshima really comes alive over the three nights of Tōkasan – a festival that really does feel “festive”. \n \nJoin the 300\,000 people who will be donning their yukata for the first time this year who take over the main Chuo-dori street and environs to promenade\, play festival games like fish scooping\, buy strange inflatable novelties and stuff their faces with equally strange stuff on sticks. \nAs well as parades and summer bon dancing\, there will be taiko drumming and other performances on stages dotted around the center of town. See below for the schedule of main events. Our favorite spot is Yukata de Bon Dance in Shintenchi Park where people of all ages dance to classic Japanese songs crackling out of the PA on the central tower and street stalls sell festival treats at fantastic prices. \nSee more info and photos from past Tōkasan festivals here.here. \nThis year\, Chuo-dori is closed to traffic in the evening every night of the festival!

SUMMARY:Wednesday Night Kagura
DESCRIPTION:Check out spectacular Hiroshima Kagura performances in the city center\, every Wednesday night until Christmas. \n \nEvery Wednesday\, one of Hiroshima’s approximately 300 Kagura troupes come into the city center from the countryside to perform a 45-minute play.

SUMMARY:Onomichi Saturday Night Market
DESCRIPTION:Onomichi’s Saturday Night Market (doyou-yomise) is as much festival as shopping expedition.  \n \nOn Saturday nights between June 14 and July 26\, the town’s usually quiet shotengai retro shopping arcade buzzes with people buying nik-naks and playing traditional festival games.  \nBest of all\, it’s all undercover\, making this is a great rainy season option. \nIt gets particularly colorful in the run up to Tanabata star festival on July 7\, when the arcade is festooned with tanabata streamers and decorations. \nThe Gion Festival coincides with the night market on June 27\, so this is a great one to aim for if you can.

SUMMARY:Sumiyoshi-san Summer Festival
DESCRIPTION:Sumiyoshi-san\, along with the Tokasan and Ebessan festivals\, is one of Hiroshima city’s big three annual shrine festivals that have long histories. \n\nSumiyoshi Shrines are dedicated to water gods\, and Sumiyoshi Shrine is located right next to the river in Sumiyoshi-cho on Route 2. It’s a real local festival\, and the neighborhood streets are lined with the usual festival food and game stalls. Many people visit the shrine over the course of two days to pray for good health and fortune. There are several nautical rituals involving traditional\, oar-powered boats that make the journey all the way to the A-bomb Dome and back\, and the floating of small boats on the river. As well as kids’ kagura shows\, each night finishes with a short fireworks display. \nAt the heart of the festival is the Nagoshi no Ōharae\, an ancient purification ritual in which visitors pass through a giant ring woven from chigaya grass (roughly 3 metres in diameter)\, circling left\, right\, and left three times to cleanse body and spirit. Paper effigies (hitogata) are also set adrift on the Honkawa River\, carrying away sins and impurities in keeping with centuries-old tradition. \nLook out for special two-day-only goshuincho (festival stamp seals) and the shrine’s popular summer treat\, Hiyashi Ame — a refreshing chilled syrup drink sold as a “drinkable good-luck charm.” Donations to support the festival are welcome from ¥1\,000. \nTimetable\nFestival start 18:00\nFireworks start 20:00

SUMMARY:Lantern Floating Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:Hiroshima’s annual Peace Memorial Day concludes with the poignant and beautiful August 6 floating ceremony on the Motoyasu River. \n \nEvery year on the evening of August 6\, thousands of people make their way to the banks of the Motoyasu River that runs below the Atomic Bomb Dome\, along the edge of the Peace Memorial Park. Here\, they set colorful paper lanterns bearing personal appeals for peace and to\, once more\, commemorate those who lost their lives in the bombing\, many of whom took their final painful breaths before succumbing to their injuries in this stretch of water. \nEveryone is welcome\, and encouraged\, to take part. There is a 1000 yen charge to cover costs\, and all you have to do is line up for your paper\, add your message\, and then line up again (this part can take a while) to make your way down to the riverside\, where volunteers will help you wrap the paper around a wooden frame and light the lantern. Then\, you can step down to the water and set it afloat with the 10\,000 or so others. \nYou can buy the paper to wrap around your lantern from early in the morning until 8:30 pm. The lantern floating begins on the bank of the Motoyasu River\, opposite the A-bomb Dome Memorial\, from 6 pm after a 30-minute ceremony. Lanterns can be floated on the river until 9 pm. \nReceiving and creating your lantern wrapper can usually be done quite quickly\, but you should be prepared to wait in a long line to reach the embankment from where you can set it afloat. Understandably\, people on the embankment take some time to reflect and also to take photographs\, but the line does move relatively quickly. We recommend having a fan to keep you cool while waiting\, especially on still nights \nIf you are unable to attend the lantern floating in the evening\, or feel the wait might be too long\, volunteers are happy to float your lantern on your behalf. Just let the staff at the reception desk know. \nA word for those with young children\nDisplays describing the aftermath of the A-bombing\, which include some graphic images\, along the path along which you line up to float your lanterns. \nThe official Hiroshima lantern floating is organized by Chushinren.

SUMMARY:Hiroshima Flower Festival
DESCRIPTION:By far Hiroshima’s biggest street festival\, Hiroshima Flower Festival is a huge event that takes over the area along Peace Boulevard for 3 days of the annual Golden Week holiday.\n \nHiroshima’s biggest annual event\, drawing in many more people than even the August 6 memorial day\, the annual Flower Festival was inspired by the celebrations that followed the Hiroshima Carp’s first championship in 1975. Crowded\, noisy\, high in kitsch and overtly commercial\, it does\, however\, draw in tens of thousands of people from near and far\, and many of them appear to have a pretty good time. \nIn addition to all the parades\, pop bands\, tarento celebrities\, comedians\, and hundreds of local hula clubs performing\, there are opportunities to watch some local kagura dance troupes. The craft beer and local sake tents\, as well as the international food area\, also get pretty lively. But\, frankly\, there is so much going on\, and the program is almost indecipherable\, so your best bet is to dive in\, wander\, and see what you come across. Or\, find a shady spot and enjoy a drink and something on a stick\, watching the crowds go by. \nUsually\, the city streets are deserted once the stages have closed\, but organizers continue to try to provide appropriate entertainment all day. In the evenings\, the Peace Flower Project event is held nightly in the Peace Memorial Park area\, with all the beautiful lights and candles on display between 6 and 9 pm. \n2025 Flower Festival Main Event Schedule\nMay 3\nFlower Festival Parade 11:00 \nSkate World 12:00-19:00 \nPeace Flower Project Illuminations 18:00-21:00\n  \nMay 4: \nHiroshima Street Athletics Plus 14:00-15:40\nTop-class athlete demonstrate their skills and visitors have the chance to try out some cool sports on a special stretch of track on Hiroshima Peace Boulevard. \nSkate World 12:00-19:00 \nPeace Flower Project Illuminations 18:00-21:00 \nMay 5\n \nYosakoi dance parade (Peace Boulevard) 11:00 \nSkate World 12:00-19:00 \nPeace Flower Project Illuminations 18:00-20:00 \n  \nOfficial website: https://www.hiroshima-ff.com/
