This festival is held each August in the Kawaguchi Autorace Circuit in Kawaguchi City, Saitama Prefecture, and is organized around the theme "let's built a friendly city through festivals." The enthusiastic citywide effort to set up the festival formed part of the inspiration for the name "Tatara," which means, "to make hotter/heat rapidly." A variety of civic and volunteer organizations as well as local businesses set up booths. Activities are geared toward both children and adults, and include a "Challenge Corner" where entire families can enjoy a haunted house as well as traditional games. Events include parades, the carrying of mikoshi (Japanese palanquins), and the Nagashi dance. A fireworks display will also occur concurrently.
