Why You Should Visit
A two-day autumn festival at Neyagawa's Espoir community centre, run with the circles that use the building. About 30 groups take turns on the Multipurpose Hall stage in 20-minute slots, from wadaiko drums and shigin chanting to ocarina, rakugo and iaido, while rooms show flower arrangements, calligraphy, paintings and miniature bonsai. Kids can make acorn crafts and handmade toys or have a family photo taken, with a puppet show on the 24th and a panel theatre on the 25th. The food-and-games village has ring toss, lucky draws, yakisoba and udon, making it an easy half-day outing with children.
