    A special event that is held on the first Sunday of August. Nearly 100 stalls are lined up along Setomachi-dori Street, the town's main street, offering Aizu-hongo ware, lacquerware, locally grown agricultural goods, and more. The festival dates back to the late Meiji period when the disciples of the Aizu-hongo Pottery studios sold their wares on the road as souvenir for people worshipping the annual festival at Hachiyoji Temple in Aizuwakamatsu City. The event, with people gathering the early morning to buy functional and beautiful potteries just as they were in the past, has become popular as the summer tradition in Aizu.
