The waters off the coast of Onjuku on the eastern side of the Boso Peninsula are famed for spiny lobster or ise-ebi.
What happens?
This festival gives you a chance to eat lots of lobster with lots of other people. Along with the eat-as-you-go stalls, there are packages for fixed prices. When the lobsters run out, there are no more.
Schedule 2025
As well as the big event on October 5, lobster will be sold every Saturday, Sunday, and holiday from September 13 to October 26. However, keep in mind that these dates may shift depending on the supply.
