Why You Should Visit
A neighbourhood music festival on Culture Day that fills three spots in Osaka's Konohana Ward with live sets of every genre. At Sumiyoshi Shrine near Chidoribashi the day opens with danjiri festival music, moves through a kids' slot, ukulele and special guests, and ends with everyone singing "Stand By Me". Over in Nishikujo, Heartbreak Cafe and Lucky Star host jazz, blues, rakugo and rock into the evening. Entry is free with a tip jar, so it suits anyone happy to wander between venues.
