Guide
Retra! Suito Sai 2026 is a special summer festival held along the waterfront of Tokushima City. From July 17 to July 19, 2026, the event will take place primarily at Aibahama Park, utilizing the beautiful riverside location to its fullest. The festival aims to bring people together through immersive experiences that celebrate local culture and the abundance of water.
The biggest draw is the location: Aibahama Park in the heart of Tokushima City. This spot blends urban convenience with the natural beauty of the river, allowing you to feel the refreshing breeze even amidst the summer heat. Visitors can enjoy music, interactive content, and special local performances designed to keep the energy high throughout the festival.
The festival runs for three days from Friday, July 17, to Sunday, July 19, 2026. Each day features different programs and highlights, making it a perfect centerpiece for your summer travel itinerary in Tokushima.
The venue is Aibahama Park, located in central Tokushima City. The park is situated near the Tokushima River and is very easy to access. It is within walking distance from JR Tokushima Station, and easily reachable via bus or taxi for both domestic and international travelers.
To make the most of your experience, preparation is key. Since Aibahama Park is an open outdoor space in the middle of summer, heat countermeasures are essential. We recommend wearing comfortable clothing suitable for an active festival environment. Please check the latest information regarding specific programs and time schedules as the event approaches.
For food, drinks, and merchandise, you can use cash, various credit cards, and electronic money. We recommend having credit cards or mobile payment methods ready for smoother transactions.
Some English-language guidance and support will be available to help international visitors. However, as not all staff members are fluent in English, simple English communication is appreciated.
While the festival is generally open to the public without prior booking, certain specific contents or experience menus may require advanced reservations. It is recommended to check details in advance.
As this is an outdoor summer event, please bring items to protect against the heat, such as a hat, parasol, and plenty of water/drinks. Comfortable walking shoes are highly recommended for the waterfront environment.
