The Ishikawa Youth Eisa Festival, the Gushikawa Youth Eisa Festival, the Katsuren Festival & Eisa Festival and the Yonashiro Ayahashi Festival have been combined and are now called the Uruma City Eisa Festival. Held in a district well known for eisa not only in Okinawa but also in mainland Japan, this event is highly popular.

Performers from various local teams will fascinate the audience with their own unique costumes and dance styles. The Yakena Eisa group will present a dignified eisa wearing gorgeous costumes, while the Heshikiya Eisa group will dance with bare feet. Beautiful fireworks displays will light up the night sky and bring the curtain down on Uruma City’s summer festival season.
