Welcome to Sendai City
The Sendai Tanabata Festival is a vibrant celebration held annually from August 6th to August 8th in the heart of Sendai City, coinciding with the traditional Japanese star festival known as Tanabata.
One of the main attractions of the festival is the stunning display of Tanabata decorations, called “Sasa-kazari.” These colorful ornaments, made from bamboo and paper, can be admired along the shopping arcades stretching from Sendai Station to Chuo-dori and Ichibancho-dori. The decorations create a magical atmosphere, transforming the city into a captivating sight.
In addition to the central area, visitors can also explore the surrounding shopping districts, where they can witness traditional and rustic Tanabata decorations. These local displays add a charming and authentic touch to the festival, showcasing the community’s dedication to preserving the Tanabata tradition.
The Sendai Tanabata Festival offers a unique opportunity to immerse oneself in Japanese culture, marvel at the beautiful Sasa-kazari, and experience the lively ambiance of this cherished summer celebration.
