Okinawa City Eisa season starts this Sunday at Music Town
The annual season for Okinawa City Tourism Association hosted Eisa Nights are starting this Sunday at Okinawa City Music Town Music Space. The events continue every weekend at various locations in Okinawa City until Saturday, Jul 30.
Besides the Music Town, the events this month take place in front of Okinawa City Hall, Okinawa City Bullfighting Ring in Yamauchi and at the Okinawa City agricultural training facility ‘Noumin Kenshu Center’ in Noborikawa. In July, Payao at Awase Fishing Port and the Southeast Botanical Gardens are the two other venues in addition to the Music Town.
The participating groups are local youth associations from the Chubu area, and include some children’s groups. Most of them will later take part in the annual All Okinawa Eisa Festival that takes place Aug. 26 to 28 at Music Town and Okinawa Athletic Park in Moromizato.
All Eisa events are free of charge. Saturday events start 19:30 and events on Sundays at 19:00.
