Why You Should Visit
A new two-day festival held for the first time at the athletic stadium in Kyuhoji Ryokuchi Park, Yao City. It brings together three parts: Koikoi Kagura, a live stage featuring VTubers and online singers; Yoimonogatari, with around 37 sake breweries and distilleries from across the Kansai region; and Yaonan Marche, with 34+ food stalls serving takoyaki, kebabs, coffee and more. The sake and food areas are free to enter — only the stage viewing area requires a ticket. Day 1 runs from late afternoon into the evening, Day 2 from morning to late afternoon. A good pick for anyone keen to taste Kansai sake or catch a VTuber live show.
