Biggest Dance Festival in Japan

The night draws to an end, its around 2 am and people are starting to dissipate. Many people have been drinking the whole time and are stumbling home or joining random dancers in alley ways. Still crowds are everywhere and local transport is saturated.

The above pick is a drunk man playing some relaxing tunes on his flute, he was slowly shuffling down the street serenading the crowds and a few dancers. Around the city random lone musicians are still playing and enjoying the night.

Groups of dancers in the images above and below continue to dance all night, drinking, having fun and drawing in random people, many are resting from a long day and probably will start again the next.

People start moving through crowds ready to go home, looking for friends and family to say goodbye. The night is still young for many. But those such as my self make our way out.

Before leaving the friend that took us here also took us to his favorite pizza place, it was pretty decent american style pizza.

That's all of Awadori dance festival, I hope I inspire people to go visit this amazing event.

Thanks for viewing, my posts are about the journey, the process and showing my experiences. Where there are a lack of words I like my work to speak for its self. Don't hesitate to ask questions.
