Tips to fully enjoy the Kawagoe Matsuri:
- Night-time Hikkawase: The floats look even more stunning when illuminated by lanterns at night. Plan your visit for the evening to experience this mystical atmosphere.
- Kurazukuri Scenery: The sight of ornate floats against the traditional warehouse-style buildings is a unique charm of Kawagoe. Please be mindful of others when taking photos.
- Visit the Museum: The Kawagoe Matsuri Kaikan is a great place to learn about the festival's history and see the floats up close. We recommend checking their exhibition schedule in advance.
