Unusual Summer Festivals in Japan

Unusual Summer Festivals in Japan

Not your average matsuri! A round-up of unusual summer festivals in Japan you might not have heard of.

The major Japanese festivals in summer are Obon and Tanabata, and there are lots of fireworks. But there are so many festivals all around Japan, all with different themes and special events going on. Here's a selection of more unusual festivals, with fire, mud splashing, spraying water on portable shrines, dressing up as demons and all sorts of chaotic fun! I'd definitely recommend visiting a Japanese matsuri if you can - even if you're staying just in the Tokyo area, there are many of them all year round, and it's guaranteed to be an experience!
