An open-air stage beside the strait where the Genpei war reached its end. The programme is "Ennen no Mai" and "Renjishi" — kabuki performed not in a theatre but at the place the history happened.
FOR FIRST-TIMERSIf this is your first time
A two-day open-air run — dress warmly; the waterfront gets cold after dark. "Renjishi" is a dance piece that carries its meaning through movement rather than words, so it needs no Japanese to enjoy. Applications for tickets were announced as closing on 31 August 2026.
