If you missed the Sapporo Snow Festival, try the Niigata Tokamachi snow festival. It’s closer to Tokyo than Sapporo, and there is just as much snow. Here at the festival, there was plenty of food, a traditional tea ceremony, and a wonderful show featuring Australian Singer Sara Lim, AKB48 graduate Tomomi Itano, Rock band Puffy, and Comedian Tomochika.
Hosted by Idol Ruriko Kojima and comedian Ijiro Okada.
The fireworks were the best fireworks I’ve ever seen in Japan.
Sarah Àlainn、板野友美（AKB48）、PUFFY、水谷千重子（友近）、小島瑠璃子、イジリ―岡田、新潟県十日町雪まつり、一番花火.
