Overview
Yosakoi is a dance festival held in Kochi city in August. Over four days, the city comes alive in a carnival-like atmosphere of music, dance and jubilation. The energetic blend of traditional and modern dance styles along with the colorful and imaginative costumes has become so popular that dance teams and spin-off festivals have spread throughout Japan and in various countries around the world. The friendly people of Kochi love parties and this is the biggest one of the year. We at Kochi Amigo are very excited to offer this unique and limited tour.
