Kanda Shrine’s Noryo Matsuri takes place over three days in August. This all-encompassing summer festival features everything from Bon Odori dancing to classic matsuri food, plus a small beer and sake festival that starts a day earlier on August 6.
During the Bon Odori session on Friday (4.30pm-8.30pm), you can dance to popular anime songs, while the ones over the weekend (from 5.30pm) feature Kanda Shrine’s original song ‘Kanda Myojin Ondo’. The organisers uploaded a practice video to their YouTube channel, so make sure to learn the steps before heading over. The festival ends at 8.30pm on all three days. The event may be cancelled in the event of bad weather.
Bon Odori Dances will not be held on August 6.
