The annual Awa Odori (Awa dance) Festival, held in Kagurazaka every summer. Groups of dancers are each allotted a strip of the street, and they do a folk dance accompanied by live music played with traditional instruments.
The sidewalks were crammed with viewers enjoying a nighttime picnic while watching the dancing.
Lots of girls opted to wear their pretty yukata, in spite of the sweltering heat.
Female dancers wear unusually shaped straw hats.
