Goshogawara Tachineputa Festival

The Goshogawara Tachineputa Festival (五所川原立佞武多祭り, Goshogawara Tachineputa Matsuri) is a Japanese summer festival which takes place every August in Goshogawara, Aomori Prefecture, Japan.

The Goshogawara Tachineputa Festival is notable for its large tachineputa floats, which are much taller than those found in the Aomori and Hirosaki Festivals.

The tachineputa floats stand at 23 meters in height and weigh 19 tons.
