We visited the “Uchide Tenjin Shrine Summer Festival (Tenjin Festival),” which is back again this year!
Uchide Tenjin Shrine Summer Festival (Tenjin Festival) Report
We arrived at around 5:30 p.m., just after the festival had begun, but it was already bustling with visitors!
The danjiri festival float is a huge hit every year. The lively sounds of traditional festival music filled the air.
Children were riding on the danjiri and looked like they were having a great time!
The shrine grounds were lined with food stalls and traditional festival booths!
There were all the festival favorites, including baby castella cakes, fried chicken, and frankfurters.
There were also plenty of stalls that children will love, selling treats such as cotton candy in cute bags and chocolate-covered bananas.
With festival games such as water-yoyo fishing, super-ball scooping, and prize draws, there are plenty of ways to soak up the festive atmosphere.

The Uchide Tenjin Shrine Summer Festival (Tenjin Festival) is being held over two days—yesterday and today (7/25)! Today’s festivities are also scheduled to begin at 5:00 p.m., so if you haven’t been yet, be sure to stop by!
