Samba and Cosplay parades with a finale featuring Tezutsu hand-held cannon fireworks!

Heating up the already hot summer of Nagoya comes the Osu Summer Festival, held annually for two days in late July or early August. The venue encompasses Osu Kannon Temple and the Osu Shopping District.

One of the traditional attractions is the Samba Show & Samba Parade, with attractive ladies dancing to the live performed samba band. The second day features the Cosplay Parade, a big event that in 2015 gathered an astounding 1,000 cosplayers from all over the country, and that honors the geeky nature of the district.
Besides all the above, stages installed at the temple, at Banshoji Temple and Fureai Square will have shows and attractions for both days, and even a big Obon-Odori dance!
The festival's grand finale is marked by the majestic Japanese Taiko Drums show with Tezutsu hand held cannon fireworks, a tradition of Aichi Prefecture, providing an exciting and memorable night!

If you come bringing a Yukata or Kimono (either of your own or rental), a free-of-charge booth will be helping guests in dressing and re-tidying up the garment.
