TV Osaka YATAI Festival 2025

The TV Osaka YATAI Festival is an annual event held since 2014 that celebrates Japanese street food culture by recreating a traditional night market (yatai) with numerous food stalls. It features regional specialties from across Japan, live entertainment, and a vibrant festival atmosphere. The 2025 edition will continue this tradition, offering visitors a taste of classic and contemporary Japanese festival foods in a single location.

Izumo Nihonkai

Izumo Nihonkai is not a specific cultural site but refers to the coastal region of the Sea of Japan (Nihonkai) around Izumo City in Shimane Prefecture. This area is historically significant as the setting for much of Japan’s oldest mythology, particularly the stories of the Shinto gods (Kami) found in the Kojiki. It is home to the grand Izumo Taisha, one of Japan’s most important and ancient Shinto shrines.

Nodoguro-don

Nodoguro-don is a traditional Japanese rice bowl dish originating from the Noto Peninsula in Ishikawa Prefecture. It features blackthroat seaperch (nodoguro), a prized white fish prized for its rich, fatty flesh, which is typically grilled and served over rice. The dish reflects the region’s long-standing fishing culture and its tradition of preparing high-quality, seasonal seafood.

Fujinomiya Yakisoba

Fujinomiya Yakisoba is a regional style of Japanese stir-fried noodles originating from Fujinomiya City in Shizuoka Prefecture, which developed as a popular post-war street food. It is characterized by its use of steamed noodles, crunchy cabbage, and a savory sauce, often topped with powdered fish flakes and pickled ginger. The dish has become a celebrated local specialty, with the city even hosting an annual yakisoba festival.
