Kansai festival guide
Kansai Matsuri Web is a focused festival discovery page for matsuri, yatai, hanabi and day-trip planning around Osaka. The goal is simple: fewer tabs, clearer event cards and calendar-friendly data.
tonight / nearby
Events grouped by distance, food stalls, fireworks and rail access.
Show events where going just to eat makes sense.
Separate big evening events from small local festivals.
Prioritize travel time instead of vague area names.
Features
Not another generic Japan list. The page should answer the practical questions people actually ask before leaving the house.
Is it worth going for food, fireworks, atmosphere, photos, or tradition? That should be visible fast.
Distance is not enough. The useful question is how annoying it is to get there from central Osaka.
Local names, romanized names and practical keywords can live together instead of forcing users to rebuild the same search.
When an event looks good, it should be easy to save it, export it or remember it without rebuilding the search later.
Preview
Good for yatai, evening walk and casual photos.
Fireworks-first event where crowd timing matters.
Worth planning if transit and weather line up.
Status
This page is intentionally lightweight: it gives the matsuri project its own surface without pretending the full product already exists. The next useful step is connecting real event data and turning the preview cards into live entries.
