The Kanto Matsuri, August 3–6, is a Japanese lantern festival. It has returned to the city of Akita for the first time since the pandemic began. Performers hang as many as 46 paper lanterns on each bamboo pole. The lanterns are lit by candles. The longest poles are about 40 feet tall and can weigh more than 100 pounds.
