Aitade Festival | Bunkyo University (Koshigaya Campus)Sat 11/1–Mon 11/3, Saitama Prefecture

This is a university festival held at the Bunkyo University Koshigaya Campus. “Aitade” refers to a plant in the knotweed family, and the name is said to come from the fact that the area around the university used to be a natural habitat for it. Each year, students run food stalls, give stage performances, and present their activities through their respective groups. It also plays a major role as a venue for interaction between students and local residents.
