56th Fukushima Waraji Festival [Peach picking ticket included]Friday, August 1, 2025Saturday, August 2, 2025Friday, August 1, 18:30-21:00 (scheduled) Paid spectator seating availableNational Route 13, Shinobu-dori to Ekimae-dori Waraji Dance, Large Waraji Parade, Original Waraji ParadeSaturday, August 2, 18:30-20:00 (scheduled) Paid spectator seating availableNational Route 13, Shinobu-dori to Ekimae-dori Waraji Dance, Large Waraji Parade, Original Waraji Parade, FinaleMount Shinobu, known since ancient times for its utamakura (poem of the dead), is located in the center of Fukushima City and is best known for its three mountains: Gassan, Yudono, and Haguro. The giant straw sandals (12m long) at Haguro Shrine, one of the three Shinobu mountains (Mount Shinobu), are said to be the largest in Japan, and have been dedicated since ancient times at the Akatsuki Mairi festival every February in prayer for good walking. It is said that the origins of the giant straw sandals lie in the Niomon gate at Haguro Shrine, where straw sandals were made to fit the size of the Nio statues enshrined there. Later, people setting out on long journeys such as pilgrimages to Ise Shrine began to offer them in prayer for good walking and a safe journey. In recent years, people have also prayed for good health, bountiful harvests, safety in the home, and prosperity in business. The Akatsuki Mairi festival every February is a traditional festival that has been passed down for over 400 years since the Edo period, and giant straw sandals (currently only one foot worth) are dedicated. The Fukushima Waraji Festival originated from this "Akatsuki Mairi" and is held every year from the first Friday to Sunday in August as a festival to protect the tradition of Japan's largest straw sandals, promote local consciousness, enjoy the short Tohoku summer, and provide a place for citizens to relax. In addition, by donating a large straw sandal (one pair), the two donated to the "Akatsuki Mairi" make up a pair (both pairs), which also carries the meaning of praying for even stronger legs.
