Summary

Kasai's Saisai Matsuri packs dance shows and live music on two stages, a haunted house and some 130 night stalls onto the city-hall car park, closing with about 1,000 fireworks in a 20-minute burst from 20:30 on 2 August. Free car parks at the Kasai Health and Welfare Centre, ASTEIA Kasai and Aladdin Stadium absorb arrivals, and the venue sits ten minutes by car from Kasai IC on the Chugoku Expressway.

Overview

The Kasai Saisai Matsuri, the city's summer fixture, runs on the special stage grounds of Kasai City Hall's car park on 2 August. Two stages carry dance performances and music live sets, while the haunted house and roughly 130 night stalls keep families busy; the night closes with about 1,000 shells across 20 minutes from 20:30. Free parking for some 1,000 cars is spread across the Kasai Health and Welfare Centre, ASTEIA Kasai, Aladdin Stadium and other sites, and the venue is about ten minutes by car from the Chugoku Expressway's Kasai IC. With the fireworks so short, pairing them with the stalls and stages makes an evening of it.

Info for International Visitors

Best arrival time

Aim to arrive about an hour before the start. As the venue is a city-hall car park, pedestrians and vehicles mix at peak times. If using the free lots (Kasai Health and Welfare Centre, ASTEIA Kasai, Aladdin Stadium and more), allow extra time to arrive and walk over.

With kids

Around 130 night stalls line the festival — watch that children do not wander off alone. Some attractions like the haunted house suit certain ages better, so check before queuing.

Photography tips

Photography is allowed, but the stage area and stall rows see constant foot traffic — be considerate with tripods. The fireworks last only 20 minutes, so settle your framing and settings beforehand.

Payment

Night stalls generally take cash, so bring plenty of small bills and coins. Viewing is free, and no paid seating is advertised.
