Kikkoman Cookout Summer Festival

JASWI is partnering with Kikkoman Foods, Inc. and the City of Jefferson again this year to bring you the 2026 Kikkoman Cookout! Last year attracted over 600 people to the inaugural event and we’re excited to build on that success with this year’s program.

You can enjoy sample dishes prepared by local chefs showcasing a variety of Kikkoman sauces and flavors, delicious beverages from Asahi Beer USA, as well as traditional Japanese summer festival activities and performances. The event will combine the best of Japanese food, cultural exchange, and community building.
