EXPERIENCE JAPANESE FESTIVALS WITH HISTORY

In the past, the celebrations served as either thanksgiving to the gods for prosperity, or a request to them for a bountiful harvest or to ward away natural disasters. Today, Japan's festivals enable visitors to witness ancient rituals, performances and lively participation by local residents.

WHAT THE PURPOSE OF JAPAN FESTIVALS?

Traditionally Japanese people have long believed that there are eight million gods that reside in everything. Matsuri are held to express gratitude to nature and the gods, to enjoy life, and to foster community.

WHAT MAKES JAPANESE FESTIVAL UNIQUE?

Everyone who goes to a festival in Japan has a unique and unforgettable experience, from the lively music and colourful costumes to the delicious street food and bright fireworks. Festivals are a big part of Japan's cultural history and are a big part of how Japanese people live their lives every day.

WHAT HAPPEN AT A JAPANESE SCHOOL WHEN FESTIVAL HAPPENS?

In many cases it is held over two days in the fall. Dances, plays and band performances are held on the stage, and booths selling light snacks and sweets, and study exhibitions are set up in classrooms.

WHAT IS JAPANESE FESTIVAL CLOTHING CALLED?

Formerly the most common Japanese garment, the kimono has fallen out of favor and is rarely worn as everyday dress now. They are most often seen at summer festivals, where people frequently wear the yukata, the most informal type of kimono.

WHEN ATTEND JAPANESE FESTIVALS WHAT NEED TO WEAR?

A common summer festival scene in Japan is people wearing yukatas (summer kimonos) with masks. You can find masks of all types including popular anime characters sold at the vendors of most festivals. It also makes for a good souvenir to bring back home the memories of the matsuri.
