The weekend’s Nakijin festival starts with the famous Nakijin Bullfighting Tournament at 16:00 on Saturday at Nakijin Bullring, followed by live music and entertainment at Nakijin Sports Park. Although the bullfighting venue is somewhat removed from the main venue, it’s a good opportunity to see Okinawan-style bullfighting. Besides, admission to the bullfighting tournament is free.

The second-day events take place at the Nakijin Sports Park and consist of a variety of live music and entertainment, including a karaoke contest and a magic show.

Fireworks end the festivities on both days.
