Tokyo Koenji Awa Odori

Tokyo Koenji Awa Odori is a festival of 10,000 dancers on streets around JR Koenji Station and Tokyo Metro's Shin-Koenji Station. Awa Odori dance troupes called "ren" from Koenji and many other places, including Tokushima where Awa Odori started, converge on Koenji. They dance on the streets and on stage. Koenji Awa Odori was started in 1957 to revitalize the town. The number of participants increased every year and the venue had to be expanded.

Asagaya Tanabata Festival

Held along the Pearl Center shopping arcade and Suzuran Shopping Street south of Asagaya Station, the Asagaya Tanabata Festival started soon after the end of World War II when local shop owners wanted to invigorate Asagaya. The Tanabata decorations have been handmade since the first Asagaya Tanabata Festival. The decorations include the year's popular characters and themes so they uniquely reflect the current times. The food stalls and store sales held during the festival also attract many people.
