Why You Should Visit

For three nights over Obon, the fountain plaza of Hanazono Central Park turns into an open-air beer garden. Thirty vendors serve each night with over a hundred menu items, and the line-up rotates day to day. With 180 tables and chairs set out, you can settle in rather than stand. Acoustic sets from reggae artists and festival games like lucky draws and target shooting round it out, so families fit in easily.

FAQ

Is it good for kids?

Very much — festival games and open lawns make it family-centered, and the park's big playground lets kids play before the food stalls open up the evening.

Is there seating?

Yes — 180 seats with tables and chairs are planned, so you can sit down rather than stand. Seating is limited, so expect to share at peak times.

What if it rains?

Severe weather cancels it. The venue is the open-air fountain plaza, so check the organizer's Instagram (@hanazononightfes) on the day if the forecast looks doubtful.
