We, NO.1 travel participated to the 38th Oizumi festival, held in Oizumi, Gumma for the weekend of July 24(Sa), 25(Su).This is one of the largest festival in the area, or even in Latin communities all over Japan, with more than 200,000 spectators.Lots of stalls are lined along the road. TAKOYAKI, YAKISOBA...typical Japanese style fast food in the festivals.

There were a lot of booths of Brazilian company, cafe or cuisine found in the area of the main stage of Brazilian live performance, adjacent to the festival.I loved Brazilian BBQ of this shop !

Here comes the samba show at the circle, in front of the main stage.Passionate samba beat turned the area into Latin world.Dancers were surrounded by crowd of people, people and people.

and traditional dances from Carribean. So colorful !

Here's the menu of our free giveaway today.Ballon(with logo of NO.1 travel), Japanese paper fan(uchiwa), and our flier.

This is out booth today. NO.1 travel mini-office!Our Portuguese-speaking staffs were in service this time, and took care of lots of Brazilian customers in their language, Portuguese.

In the evening, another dance started "YOSAKOI SORAN".See the back of dancers. NO.1 travel paper fan! WOW!This is another form of our collaboration with people in the area.

and then Japanese MIKOSHI came along... Do you feel the heat of these energetic guys? Soooo HOT!

Town was filled with lots of enthusiasms by sunset. Beyond nationalities, beyond languages.. See the crowd of people!

Although we were caught in a shower sometimes during the festival, we were really glad to see and communicate with lots of people, especially　for those people in Latin communities in this North Kanto area, who are not able to visit our office in Tokyo. This would definitely be a meaningful weekend for us.See you all in the next event we go!
