毎年5月3、4日は　福岡市民の祭り　博多どんたく港まつり

Many groups join the Hakata Dontaku Parade including local citizen groups, student groups, private companies and associations, as well as groups from other prefectures in Kyusyu and even from overseas.

The participation of the two sister cities, Auckland (New Zealand) and Pusan (Republic of Korea), and other Asian countries such as the Philippines and China add an international flavor to the festival.

The festival has become an occasion to meet and interact with people from around the world.
