What’s Happening? 🎤🍜
Itomaru, Itoman’s public market that got a fancy upgrade in 2020, is hosting this evening event. It’s got a laid-back, nostalgic vibe perfect for winding down after a day of tugging on giant ropes! Whether you’re there for the food or the performances, there’s plenty to keep you entertained.
Foodie Paradise 😋

Live Music 🎶
On stage, you can catch some awesome performances from bands like:
- “Trickstar Goonies” (yeah, the name is as fun as their music)
- “Hayabusa Jun with Itoman Accha Accha Shi-tai” (don’t try to say it too fast)
- “MACHIBATA”
And to wrap it all up, everyone gets together for a big Kachāshī dance. Yep, performers and audience all join in. It’s gonna be a blast!
Tug-of-War & Then Itomaru 🎯
Earlier in the day, the famous Itoman Great Tug-of-War will take place, so if you’re already in the area pulling on some ropes, why not stop by Itomaru afterward? It’s the perfect way to keep the fun going into the evening.
