Mazda's nationwide dealerships not only act as official sponsors for the National Sports Festival but also provide support for regional sports tournaments, local professional soccer teams, and amateur sports teams.
Tohoku Mazda has been co-sponsoring the "Tour de Sakuranbo," a long-distance bicycle ride in Yamagata Prefecture, since 2017. Rather than race each other, participants start the ride at 6:30 a.m. and aim to complete their respective course (selected depending on their ability) by 5 p.m., the time limit, while enjoying local cuisine and hospitality at the rest areas. In FY2019, Tohoku Mazda provided four cars to act as lead vehicles and supported the operation of all four courses.
