Festivals are everywhere throughout Japan during summer. In Niigata, we have the Niigata Festival every year in August. This big event is celebrated in 3 consecutive days.
The festival started yesterday with the dai-minyou-nagashi, in direct translation, the great folk song flow. Basically, what they do is dance along with the traditional Japanese folk songs. People from around Niigata representing their companies, colleges, clubs participated and danced along 1.2 km from furumachi up to Niigata main station.
