Sapporo Autumn Fest transforms Odori Park's 1.5-km stretch into a month-long outdoor food hall celebrating Hokkaido's status as Japan's premier agricultural region. Over 400 producers and restaurants set up stalls across themed blocks dedicated to different towns and food categories, including fresh seafood, Jingisukan lamb BBQ, corn, dairy, and sake. The event draws over two million visitors and is widely regarded as Japan's finest regional food festival.
