Each year Sweets Kendamas hosts the North American Kendama Open (NAKO) right here in Minneapolis.

We are so excited to be back in person this September after 2 years of hosting our event online. There will be vendors, workshops, video premiers, and more all weekend long.
This is an all-ages event open to players of all skill levels.
