Sapporo Summer Festival: Blooming all at once

There are numerous events held in the Sapporo Central Area, offering a vibrant cultural experience for visitors. The Odori Beer Garden stands out as the largest in the country and is a must-visit destination. During the Hokkai Bon Odori festival in Odori Park, many people enthusiastically participate. Wearing Yukata and holding Uchiwa fans, participants dance to the beat of drums and flutes, forming large circles. Anyone can join in the festivities, even without wearing Yukata—it’s open to all and incredibly enjoyable. Don’t miss out on this lively and inclusive event!
