Meet the official festival character Happy chan and get down with the fine citizens of Tokyo’s closest ward to Chiba.
Not held since 2018 due to a typhoon in 2019 and then the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 2021, and 2022, 2023 is the earliest we can expect the next one.
There will be performances, a character show (involving a police character, from what we can tell), different sections including happy square, fresh square, friends square and the usual selection of delicious festival foods, local produce and probably a fire engine. The venue for the festival is the green expanse of Shinozaki Park – here’s a map of what’s to be found where on the day.
Organizers may cancel events, alter schedules, or change admission requirements without notice. Always check official sites before heading to an event.
