Nagabusa Koinobori Festival (長房ふれあい端午まつり)

Although the Japanese name of the festival is technically the "dragon boat festival" there are no boats and it is celebrated by viewing the around 1000 carp streamers hung around the banks of the Minamiasa River in Nagabusa, Hachioji! There are stalls serving typical Japanese festival food as well as booths selling handmade crafts by local residents.


Where: In front of the Minami Asakawa Nagafusa Civic Center: 〒193-0824 東京都八王子市長房町506−2 八王子市長房市民センター

When: May 4th / May 5th

How much: Free


There are many adorable carp streamers that are handmade by the local children.
