Toide Tanabata Festival（To be held in 2022） 戸出七夕まつり

Japan’s most beautiful Tanabata festival!

This is a traditional festival in the Toide district of Takaoka City in which 1,500 tanabata streamers of various sizes line the streets to form a Tanabata Tunnel. The largest streamer is 18m long! At night the decorations are illuminated by lanterns to create a dreamlike atmosphere that has led some to call it the most beautiful Tanabata festival in Japan. As July 7th is a sekku (seasonal change) day for boys, households with boys make tanabata streamers in order to ask for the healthy growth of their children. This is a tradition that has been handed down over the ages in this area.
