About this event

The Hirosaki Neputa Asakusa Festival brings the traditional Neputa celebration of Hirosaki, Aomori Prefecture, to the streets of Tokyo’s historic Asakusa neighborhood.

The festival features enormous illuminated lantern floats decorated with colorful paintings of warriors, mythical figures and scenes inspired by Japanese and Chinese legends.

Accompanied by traditional neputa-bayashi musicians playing drums, flutes and hand cymbals, the floats travel through Asakusa’s shopping streets, creating a lively celebration of northern Japanese culture.

Visitors can also browse a regional products market featuring fresh Hirosaki apples, traditional sweets and other specialties from Aomori Prefecture.

The 2026 event is the festival’s 14th edition.
