Samurai Festival in Odawara on May 3rd during Golden Week. Odawara was once the seat of a powerful samurai clan, the Hojo or Go-Hojo as they are known by later historians. The Hojo Clan rose from obscurity to become a great power in the Kanto region. They had a network of castles to defend their capital of Odawara.
The Odawara Godai Hojo Matsuri celebrates their illustrious past with a variety of performances and a large parade of people in samurai armor and period piece costumes.
