Bird Festival in Kanazawa 2026

This May, Kanazawa welcomes a unique event catering to all bird enthusiasts—the Bird Festival in Kanazawa. Hosted by Kotoricafe, the festival is set to take place at the Kanazawa Workers Plaza, just a short ten-minute walk from the Kanazawa Station’s west exit.

Scheduled for May 16th (Saturday) from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM and May 17th (Sunday) from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM, this festival is a dream come true for bird lovers. The festival focuses on the theme of 'relaxing coffee time while watching little birds,' and promises a cozy atmosphere where visitors can mingle with fellow bird lovers while enjoying a cup of coffee.

The event will feature a gathering of popular creators from across the nation, showcasing a vibrant array of bird-themed artworks and merchandise. Whether you are looking for unique art pieces or cute bird accessories, you will find something special here that resonates with your love for birds. Given that this is the only bird festival in the Hokuriku region, it's an occasion not to be missed, especially for those residing in or visiting Kanazawa.

The Bird Festival will take place in the same venue as last year, which is the Kanazawa Workers Plaza located at 3-2-20 Kitayasue, Kanazawa, Ishikawa Prefecture. For an entry fee of only 500 yen, attendees can enjoy access to all the festival activities, come with their families (children under elementary school age are free), and receive a complimentary clear file as a special treat!

Additionally, the festival will feature guest appearances from renowned creators such as Erupopi and Yutoriya, enriching the cultural experience and providing attendees with opportunities to interact with talented artists who have incredible insights into their creations.

The festival also enjoys support from local partners: Kotonowa, Masano Mori Animal Hospital, Pimu Bird Hospital, and Tedori Fishland, all of whom share a passion for facilitating the wellbeing of birds and promoting avian art and culture.

As Kanazawa opens its doors to this gathering of creativity and love for birds, be sure to mark your calendars for a delightful weekend! Explore, shop, and connect with like-minded individuals while enjoying the charming ambiance of the Bird Festival. Whether you are an avid bird watcher or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of avian life, there is something for everyone at this festival. We look forward to seeing you there!
