Organized by Kokura Castle Bamboo Akari Executive Committee

Co-sponsored by Kitakyushu City

 

Kokura Castle Bamboo Akari was held for the first time in November in the first year of Reiwa, and about 16,000 bamboo lanterns were displayed in Kokura Castle. The customers enjoyed the fantastic space. This is the third time the event has been held, and the scale has further increased to expand the area. In Kitakyushu City, which has been certified as one of the New Three Major Night Views of Japan, we would like to nurture it as a big event in the fall and winter and play a role in creating a city that people are eager to visit. At the same time, with the theme of “citizen power,” we would like to invite many citizen volunteers to participate in this project and lead this project to success. Furthermore, even a tint bit of bamboo cut out from the abandoned bamboo grove can be transformed into a bamboo lantern. After that, I would like to create a model case of SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) and Kitakyushu City’s unique “recycling society” by using bamboo.
