Osaka Anime Street Festa

During the month of March, the streets of Denden Town in Nipponbashi are closed off for the Osaka Street Anime Festa. This street festival celebrates the otaku and cosplay culture, featuring thousands of cosplayers, music performances, vendors, and fans of anime & manga. The road is closed off and reserved for pedestrians and stalls, with many cosplayers parading down the open street. Photos are welcome, and guests are encouraged to join in the cosplay fun. The street festival is held in Nipponbashi which is often considered the Akihabara of Kansai. Here, you can find all things related to anime, manga, video games, technology, figurines, collectibles, books, costumes, and much more. The cosplay parade also features qualifiers for the World Cosplay Summit, which makes the cosplay a must see while at the festival!
