Shonai Kiryu Festival

  • img

Shonai Town was born in 2005 from the merger of the former towns of Amarume and Tachikawa.

A new festival will be held to pray for a bountiful harvest and the development of the town based on the concepts of the two towns’ legends related to dragons, the Hiryu Densetsu of the former Amarume Town and the Ryujin Faith of the former Tachikawa Town.

The highlight is that two dragons, Hiryu and Himeryu, have souls and awaken their eyes! In addition to a soul-instilling ceremony, a performance of Amarume Hiryu Taiko drums, and a dragon-carrying experience by elementary and junior high school students, the finale is a dragon dance performed by a 40m-long flying dragon and a 30m-long princess dragon.

The festival will also be livened up by food stalls and food trucks that bring together delicious food from Yamagata and Shonai.

Please enjoy the first Shonai Kiryu Festival with your family and friends.
