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. The plays\, which are based on Japanese myths\, legends\, and historical events\, may vary\, but the shows are always thrilling.  \nExpect demons\, multi-headed serpents\, dazzling special effects\, and lightning-fast costume changes. \nIf you are in Hiroshima City on a Wednesday\, Wednesday Night Kagura is not to be missed and it is a real bargain! \nKlook.com\nIn contrast with other forms of classical and folk theater in Japan\, Hiroshima Kagura\, with its action sequences and driving percussive rhythms\, is highly entertaining even without knowledge of Japanese. There is an English-speaking MC on hand to help explain things and English subtitles are displayed above the stage. \nSeveral times a year\, you can also buy a ticket to go backstage to talk with the performers\, check out the amazing costumes\, and take souvenir photos. \n  \nWednesday Night Kagura Performance Confirmed Performances\nJune 2026 \n・ June 3 Jinrin (Ikawashi Kagura Troupe\, Miyoshi) | Buy tickets on KLOOK \n・ June 10　Oeyama (Sanou Kagura Troupe\, Kita Hiroshima) | Buy tickets on KLOOK \n・ June 17  Yorimasa (Ogahara Shimogumi Kagura Troupe\, Kita Hiroshima) | Buy tickets on KLOOK \n・ June 24  Dannoura (Imayoshi Kagura Troupe\, Kita Hiroshima)| Buy tickets on KLOOK \nJuly 2026 \n・ July 1   Yamata no Orochi (The Eight-headed Serpent) | Buy tickets on KLOOK \n・ July 8   Momijigari (Maple Viewing) | Buy tickets on KLOOK \n・ July 15  Oeyama (Mt.

SUMMARY:Tomo Bentenjima Fireworks Festival
DESCRIPTION:Tomo Bentenjima Fireworks Festival in the quaint port town of Tomonoura kicks off the summer’s fireworks festivals in the Chugoku region. 90min of fireworks over the water silhouetting picturesque Benten Island. \n \nEvent Schedule\n19:00 Aya Bushi Dance Performance \n \nAs Tomonoura flourished as a port of call for Kitamae-bune trading ships ships in the 18th century)\, it became not only a place where good would be exchanged\, but a crossroads of the various regional cultures of seafarers\, who would spend tim in the port while they waited for favorable tide. These elements fused with Haiya-style songs\, and the art form was initially enjoyed as Niwaka Odori\, a dance without set choreography. The Tomonoura Aiya-bushi Preservation Society was established in 1964 and developed and a unified\, accessible set of choreography. The inclusion of local place names and specialties of Tomonoura in lyrics\, has made it a symbol of the region.  \n19:30-20:30 Fireworks Display \n \n2\,000 fireworks explode in the bay over the course of one hour with Benten Island as a picturesque backdrop. \nGetting there\nThere is no parking available near the venue on the day of the event.
