2. O-Mizutori – Todaiji, Nara
3. Sanja Matsuri – Sensoji Asakusa, Tokyo
4. Grand Festival – Toshogu Shrine – Nikko
5. Gion Matsuri – Yasaka Shrine, Kyoto

7. Daimonji Festival – Kyoto

The Sapporo Snow Festival definitely makes my list, as would the Naked

I hear that either Tanabata or Obon is pretty nice in my area
