🎪 Matsuri Festivals

Kishiwada Danjiri Matsuri

September 14-15 (main), plus early October

One of Japan's most dangerous festivals — 4-ton wooden 'danjiri' floats are pulled through Kishiwada streets at full speed while acrobats stand on top. Serious accidents happen most years. Utterly thrilling to watch.

Access: Kishiwada Station (Nankai Line from Namba, 25 min)
