Awara Onsen Spring Festival
The festival begins with a dance performance by geiko, followed by a parade of three floats: a huge doll float, a cherry blossom float decorated with cherry blossoms, and a taiko float with large drums. Geiko ride on the cherry blossom floats and play a gorgeous musical accompaniment for the enjoyment of spectators along with the stalls lining the streets.
