The "MIONOYA" ensemble preserves and promotes traditional Japanese culture, presenting the art of geisha and the classical dance "nihon-buyo" in Japan and at cultural events around the world. In their performances, the members draw on both classical repertoire and contemporary interpretations of traditional dance, helping new audiences discover Japan's cultural heritage.

At HINODE JAPAN, the founder of the "MIONOYA" ensemble, Orii, together with geishas Chiaki and Minami, will showcase the elegance of stage dance, introduce traditional parlor games "o-zashiki asobi", share insights into their culture, and hold photo sessions with visitors. Geisha performances can be seen on all festival days from October 2 to 4.
