The Purpose of the Website
The Yamada Festival is a traditional event that is supported by numerous people each year. However, there are always many questions from members of the public, especially as to the route of the omikoshi and the events schedule.
The aim of the official website is to provide a platform for festival information so that everyone can better enjoy the event.
Future Goals
The official website is only the starting point. Moving forward, we plan to provide more of the following information.
- Guide to fully enjoying the festival: Recommended routes that even first-time visitors can enjoy
- Tourist information: Introduction to tourist attractions in Yamada and surrounding areas
- Information on eating out: Street food, local cuisine and restaurant guides
- Information on accommodation: Where to stay in the area
- Culture: Local performing arts, “ohana” culture and other unique festival attractions
The Yamada Festival is an important cultural event that local people and visitors can enjoy together. By providing information through the official website, we hope to reach a wider audience and develop the festival for future generations.
This website was created by the Yamada Festival Editorial Department.
The Yamada Festival Editorial Department was established to promote the appeal of the Yamada Festival, a traditional event in Yamada, Iwate Prefecture, in an accurate and easy-to-understand manner. Our mission is to support local history, culture and local performing arts for a sustainable future.
In addition to providing information on official events, we hope to make the Yamada Festival more widely known and offer useful information for visitors. The Yamada Festival is the pride of the town and an important bond that connects the community. The editorial department will continue to promote the charm of the festival at home and abroad while never losing sight of its local importance.
