《12》Hakata Dontaku Port Festival (Part 1)...Hakata's representative spring festival
- The Hakata Dontaku Port Festival is one of the most popular spring festivals in Hakata, attracting about 2.4 million people (in front of the Corona disaster site) during the Golden Week period of May 3 and 4.
- Every year, "Dontaku teams" of various styles parade through the streets, and in Hakata, the main stage and performance stands are set up in various places, and the city is covered with the colors of the festival.
- In recent years, there has been an increase in the number of foreign participants and foreign groups, and in contrast, Fukuoka's proximity to the continent has given the festival a rich international flavor, with Hakata Dontaku traveling to festivals held overseas. (About 700 groups and more than 30,000 people participate in the festival.)
