The ogose Festival is said to date back to the Bunka and Bunsei eras (1804–1830) and is held annually in late July. During the day, portable shrines (mikoshi) parade through the neighborhood, and starting in the evening, the six festival floats—the stars of the show—are paraded simultaneously. At the festival’s climax, the six majestic floats and the fireworks launched one after another vividly illuminate the summer night. Various other events, such as Yosakoi dancing, are also held, drawing large crowds. Why not come and experience the ogose Festival, rich in history and tradition?
