Otabi Festivalお旅まつり
The Otabi Festival is a major event in Ishikawa, and the largest in Komatsu, featuring parades of floats called Hikiyama. Eight historically significant floats from the festival's origins, nearly 350 years ago, are prominently displayed. The highlight of the festival is a grand Kabuki performance by local children, featuring all eight Hikiyama floats as a lit stage. Additionally, local shrines lead processions of portable shrines (mikoshi) through the streets, adding to the festive atmosphere.
