Tanabe City goes all out to host this annual festival celebrating the historic hero, Benkei, who was a warrior monk in 13th-century Japan. Depicted as a strong and loyal warrior, Benkei commonly appears in Japanese folktales. On the 5th at 6:30pm, the story of Benkei will be reenacted on stage at Tokei Shrine. The following day, a geta dance on Aoi Street will take place at 3pm and a fireworks display is scheduled at Ogigahama beach from 8pm. Releated events such as a Yosakoi dance performance and a market will also be held.
