The piercingly cold air and gloomy gray skies can easily make you feel down. However, it's precisely because of this cold that "warmth" feels even more special. This time, we'll be welcoming guests "Tofu Hyakkei" and "Kanban On," and we'll all gather together to enjoy some heartwarming food, which is all the more heartwarming in the freezing cold. The same day will also be the day of the "Bride's Procession" event, held by Yukitopia Nanamagari in Ugo Town since 1986. The "Bride's Procession" event was born from the idea that it should be an event that is truly suited to the cold and snow! The Bridal Procession, a recreation of traditional wedding scenes, involves a horse-drawn sleigh parade through town carrying newly married couples. It will also pass through Honmachi Street, which Bonjuku U faces, and will be visible from the venue. Enjoy, watch, chat... and fully celebrate the cold winter. Locals and non-locals alike, with family and friends, or even alone, are welcome to join in. [About the Bridal Procession] The Bridal Procession is the main event of the Yukitopia Nanamagari event, held annually on the last Saturday of January. *Details: Nanmo University Akita Folklore Studies "Bride's Procession" https://nanmoda.jp/2017/02/723/ [Event Summary] Date and Time: Saturday, January 31, 2026, 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM Location: Bonjuku U Main Building Earthen Floor Participation Fee: 6,000 yen for adults Capacity: 10 people (first come, first served) Theme: "Celebrating the Freezing Winter - Heartwarming Tofu, Oden, and Warmed Sake" - Freshly made tofu, oden from a tofu shop, and warmed sake, with variations in sake cups and temperature. *Non-alcoholic options are also available. *Plans that include accommodation are also available.
