Originating from Chinese folklore, Tanabata is a holiday that celebrates the meeting of Orihime and Hikoboshi! Separated by the Milky Way, the stars Orihime and Hikoboshi are able to meet once per year on the seventh day of the seventh month. Guests of all ages are invited to enjoy the summer sun and partake in the Tanabata celebration. This year’s festival will be full of kid-friendly fun, such as games, performances, crafts and food !
