Have you ever wondered what kind of national holidays Japan has? While Western countries have specific holidays such as Halloween and Easter, Japan has several holiday “seasons” where you can experience a wide variety of festivities, foods, and events.

We share our experiences of:

-Outdoor spring picnics and Kanamara Matsuri, Japan’s fertility festival.

-Summer festivals and Obon season

-Celebrating New Years eve and New Years day in Japan

-Arthur’s experience celebrating New Years eve in Shibuya, the busiest nightlife area in Tokyo

-Golden Week, Silver Week, and many minor Japanese holidays
