Heso is Japanese for belly button, so this festival in Nakaita goes to town with the concept, featuring eisa dancing, belly dancing, and heso odori — belly button dancing.

Schedule

The event starts at around 2 p.m. with water being sprinkled on the main shopping street in Nakaita. This will be followed by various kids parades with the main dancing happening a little later in the afternoon.
