The Fukuyama Rose Festival is the city's largest annual event.
The Rose Festival originated in May 1956, that year local residents planted 1,000 rose seedlings, and also launched the Rose Exhibition (sponsored by the Fukuyama Rose Society). Starting in 1971, sponsored by the Fukuyama Festival Committee, the Fukuyama Rose Festival was put on by city residents as a whole.
To deepen international exchange, every year, the U.S., British, German, French, South Korean, Australian, Canadian, and Bulgarian consuls general are invited to the well-established Rose Contest.
