Yakitori JAPAN Festival 2023 in Nagato" will be held on August 26 (Sat.) and 27 (Sun.), organized by the West Japan Yakitori Festival Executive Committee.
This is an event where unique yakitori restaurants not only from Nagato City, the "city of yakitori" but also from all over Japan gather to enjoy various styles of yakitori.
The "Western Japan Yakitori Festival" is usually held in Nagato City at the end of August, where stores from all over western Japan gather, but this year the "Yakitori JAPAN Festival 2023 in Nagato" will be held on a national scale.
Eighteen stores from Hokkaido in the north and Okinawa in the south are scheduled to gather at the event, and we look forward to seeing you there.
