Taking place throughout Golden Week (April 29th through to May 5th), the Kikuka Winery Festival celebrates this much-loved beverage. There will be a variety of wines from Kumamoto Prefecture available for attendees to enjoy, along with foods that pair well with them.
Even though this event centers around wine, there are plenty of additional activities that make it quite a family-friendly affair, including a circus tent, music performances, tuk tuk rides, and even strider bikes available for the little ones to ride around on.
Additional information about performance schedules will be posted on the Kikuka Winery social networking sites in the lead up to the event. Their Instagram handle is @kikuka_winery.
