The festival is operated by Shopping District Promotion Association of ‘Azabu Juban’, a traditional town which has a lot of traditional Japanese restaurants and Japanese antique shop, and also a gourmet town which has a lot of modern popular restaurants.
Such popular restaurants or shops open special street stalls during the festival for selling their special foods, drinks and goods that are much more gorgeous than the usual festival’s stalls. Also many embassies of other countries open the street stalls to introduce the local foods.
