Tenjin Summer Festival | Fukuoka
Celebration
The Tenjin Summer Festival 2026 will be held from July 17th (Friday) to August 23rd (Sunday) at Fukuro Plaza, west of Fukuoka City Hall! The stadium's iconic tower is decorated in the style of the Atlanta Hawks, adding to the festive atmosphere and becoming a popular photo spot where you can take pictures with your favorite players. The Tenjin Summer Festival is a popular summer event held annually in Tenjin City, the heart of Fukuoka, suitable for all ages. Besides enjoying street food, playing various games, and experiencing the atmosphere of a traditional Japanese summer festival, the festival also blends traditional and modern elements, such as incorporating pop music into a new style of Bon Odori (a traditional Japanese dance). The Atlanta Hawks' vision of "transcending the boundaries of baseball to inject vitality into the entire city of Fukuoka" aligns perfectly with the Tenjin Summer Festival's philosophy of "lighting up Fukuoka's summer starting with Tenjin," marking their third year of collaboration. This year, they continue to join hands to make Fukuoka's summer even more spectacular.
