Today, the 27th Dōgūsuji Festival was held.
This is the event that the members of Doguyasuji Shopping Street put the most effort into!
At the opening
Including Mana Kumagai, President of the Japan Konamono Association,
Various local mascots came to visit.
The marching band performance was great, with the young comedians from Yoshimoto Kogyo really shining. Live band performances are truly wonderful.
The Maido Rentsu Yosakoi dance was also performed, and from there, a parade was held to Doguyasuji Shopping Street.
The highlight of this event is definitely the three-kind platter.
There was a line.
Everyone seemed curious, and while they were lining up, they asked, "What's a radio steak?" and "What's a choboyaki?"
I was asked questions often.
We have also meticulously prepared other attractions such as yakitori and food sample experiences to ensure you can enjoy yourselves.
The main event this afternoon is the 100-yen rock-paper-scissors tournament!
Super special deals will be presented to the winner of rock-paper-scissors!
All of the products were over 10,000 yen!
Your kids end up winning, don't they? (laughs)
Students from Kansai Gaidai University also came to help.
They fundraised for the Osaka Marathon.
Badges, tenugui towels, straps, and more, designed by the Doguyasuji Shopping Street's designers, were also sold and were very popular.
We will present gift certificates that can be used at the venue or in Doguyasuji.
We've been preparing for this Doguyasuji Festival for months, and seeing all of your smiling faces today, I truly feel it was worth the effort.
We look forward to your continued patronage of Sennichimae Doguyasuji Shopping Street.
