What You'll Experience

The Kyushu International Three Day March is a member tournament of the International Marching League (IML), which consists of 29 tournaments from 26 countries around the world, and there are only two in Japan (this tournament and the Japan Three Day March in Higashimatsuyama, Saitama Prefecture).

Over the three days, you will be able to experience the mountains, ocean, and other natural features of Yatsushiro, and along the way, local people will be serving up local specialties.

Tournament staff will be patrolling the course so you can feel safe in case of an emergency.

As a special novelty for the 30th anniversary event, all participants will receive a common pass to enter the city's hot spring facilities.
