The traditional "Awa Odori" performing art has over 400 years' history. With Awa dance lovers existing all over the world, video messages from dancers in the United States, France, Brazil, mainland China and Malaysia will be screened during the upcoming performances as well. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Awa Odori's staging has been canceled multiple times, but finally, in winter 2021, the hot performance will return to Tokushima, the birthplace of the Awa Dance Festival.
Participating in the tour will be dancer groups from the Tokushima Awa Odori Association, which are some of the most famous and skilled teams called "Yumei-ren." Live video footage will be delivered in high-quality resolution using three cameras. Sensitive female dancing and dynamic male dancing will bring viewers the realistic feeling of the stillness and powerfulness of Awa Odori.
