When you think of snowy winter festivals, Sapporo in Japan probably is the first place that comes to mind. In the winter in Japan, there are winter festivals every year in the snowy north that drew great crowds and offer lots of attractions to everyone.

The big one is the Sapporo Snow Festival which is held every year in February on Japan’s snow –covered northern island, Hokkaido. The Sapporo Snow Festival was the first of its kind held in Japan, and it is still the biggest. Every year, 2 million snow lovers gather in Sapporo, the biggest city in Hokkaido, to enjoy the Snow Festival in the first 2 weeks of February. At the festival, there are hundreds of snow sculptures(雕刻品) made by artists from all over the world. Some are a couple of buildings. There are ice sculptures too, and ice bars where you can go and have a cold beer.

The Sapporo Snow Festival was started in the 1950s by a group of high school kids. Bored and shut-in by the cold winter, they began to have competitions making snow sculptures. Every year, more kids joined in, and now the festival draws now artists from 15 different countries. There are also musical performances, light shows, snow slides and big snowballs fights.

Every major area has its own snow festival. One of the most popular is the Iwate Snow Festival. It’s held in the small town of Shizukuishi in early or mid-February. Iwate is also famous for its yearly firework displays, where people can watch the colors reflect off the snow. In Iwate you can see traditional Japanese musicians and dancers perform on floats(彩车).
