The Hokuryu Sunflower Festival will be held again this year.

Hello, everyone! This is the Hokkaido News Department. Thank you for visiting our website. Today, we would like to introduce the 38th Hokuryu-cho Sunflower Festival held at the sightseeing spot "Hokuryu-cho Himawari no Sato" in Hokuryu-cho, Hokkaido.
Endless sunflower fields.

About 2 million sunflowers bloom in an area the size of five Tokyo Domes.

This sunflower-covered scenery is very energizing. This field of sunflowers, one of the largest in Japan, attracts more than 200,000 visitors every year. The best time to see the sunflowers is in early August. Admission is free, but there is a fee for the Sunflower Maze. For more information, please check "Hokuryu-cho Himawari no Sato (Sunflower Field in Hokkaido) - Hokuryu-cho Portal".

Recommended access to the Hokuryu-cho Sunflower Village.

A recommended plan is to stay overnight in Asahikawa City or Sounkyo Onsen, rent a car in Asahikawa City, and drive to Hokuryu Town, which is just about a 60-minute drive. Why not visit "Hokuryu-cho Himawari no Sato" this summer and enjoy the "Himawari sightseeing car" and other attractions? The 38th Hokuryu-cho Sunflower Festival will be held for 30 days from Saturday, July 20 to Sunday, August 18, 2024. We look forward to seeing you there.
