World Tajima Beef Festival

To commemorate the 2023 recognition of the traditional Tajima beef breeding system in the Mikata region, where humans and cattle coexist, as a Globally Important Agricultural Heritage System, and to spread its appeal to the world, the festival will be newly launched in 2023 as the "World Tajima Beef Festival."

On the day, a special BBQ area will be set up where you can enjoy Yumura Onsen Tajima Beef. BBQ sets, charcoal, and other BBQ essentials will be provided free of charge! Not only can you grill and eat the meat on the spot, but meat is also available for purchase to take home.

The Tando Haneso Dance evolved into its current form during the Warring States period when a warrior from the countryside would teach his sons and daughters swordsmanship to protect themselves and their homes. The dancers, dressed in special costumes, dance with powerful grace and swinging sleeves, captivating the audience.

Students from Tajima Agricultural High School will perform a bridal procession of Tajima cows, recreating the scene of a traditional wedding. Amateur band live music and bingo tournaments will also add to the festive atmosphere. In the children's festival area, children will have fun with activities like scooping super balls and yo-yo fishing.
