「The 42nd Yonezawa Beef Festival」 will be held on Saturday, September 14th!

The 「Yonezawa Beef Festival」 is a major event where about 900 people gather at the Matsukawa Riverbank to enjoy the finest Yonezawa beef. From evening to night, attendees gather around charcoal grills under rows of tents, savoring the melt-in-your-mouth beef marbled with delicate fat. The festival, which started in 1980, aims to promote the consumption of Yonezawa beef, a representative of 「Yonezawa's Taste ABC,」 and to enhance its brand value.

※Yonezawa's Taste ABC: A is for apples, B is for beef, C is for carp. These are delicious local specialties from Yonezawa.
