Observance
Tanabata Festival

Tanabata Festival is observed on July 7th and is based on a legend of two star-crossed lovers, represented by the stars Vega and Altair, who are permitted to meet only once a year. People write wishes on colourful strips of paper called tanzaku and hang them on bamboo branches, and many cities hold large Tanabata festivals with decorations and street stalls. It is not a public holiday, though it is one of Japan's most visually distinctive seasonal festivals.
