Get ready to indulge in all things strawberry at the Osaka Strawberry Festival, an event that promises a feast for the senses. This 10-day celebration showcases the many delicious ways to enjoy this ever-popular fruit, and after the success of last year's debut in the Kansai region the festival returns with an expanded schedule, featuring exciting new experiences, tasty treats, and exclusive merchandise offerings.
Strawberry lovers will be truly spoiled for choice with a wide variety of sweet creations on offer—some of the highlights include various aesthetically pleasing strawberry-filled parfaits, strawberry churros, strawberry daifuku, and strawberry and chocolate-topped dessert pizzas. There will also be a range of strawberry-themed accessories available for purchase as fun souvenirs from the event.
Please note that this is a ticketed event, with admission priced at 450 JPY for advance purchases or 600 JPY on the day. Pre-school aged children receive free admission.
