What is Bon Odori?
Bon Odori is a traditional dance performed during "Obon," a Japanese Buddhist event held in summer to welcome the spirits of ancestors. Obon is a deeply spiritual time in Japan, when families return to their hometowns, prepare offerings, and light lanterns to guide their ancestors' souls back home.
Bon Odori is danced as a way to celebrate and honor those spirits, often in a joyful and communal circle around a "yagura" (a central tower). There are two main types of Bon Odori: a performance type, and a participatory one where everyone joins in the dance.
The LB Bon-Odori Festival follows the latter – a celebration where all participants dance together, just as in traditional Japanese festivals.
While rooted in spiritual tradition, Bon Odori is not a religious ritual, but a cultural and emotional expression of remembrance and togetherness. It is a part of the Japanese tradition of showing gratitude to the spirits of ancestors, held with joy and community spirit during the summer season.
*In Japan, anime songs have been part of some Bon-Odori festivals for quite a while, but in recent years, they seem to be even more common—giving the events a more casual feel. And as the cost of building a yagura is quite high, some festivals no longer include a yagura, which can feel a bit disappointing.
