Shikoku Festivals
30 festivals in this region
Shikoku's festivals are intimately connected to the island's 88-temple pilgrimage tradition and its reputation for spiritual journeys. The Awa Odori in Tokushima is Japan's largest dance festival, where the whole city dances for four days. The Yosakoi Festival in Kochi combines traditional dance with modern choreography, creating one of Japan's most energetic celebrations.

Before adding this to your itinerary
- Start with travel base, evening schedule, and rail access before adding a regional festival to the route.
- Large metro regions offer more choices, but crowd control and station exits matter as much as the event itself.
- If this region has fewer listings, compare adjacent regions and the monthly calendar before forcing a weak plan.
