Taking place annually each August in Tokushima on the island of Shikoku, the Awa Odori Festival is Tokushima’s most famous attraction and the subject of national attention every August when well over a million people turn out in the streets of Tokushima City to watch or participate in this traditional folk dance festival. While this year’s festival has come and gone, it’s never too early to begin planning your visit for next year!
