About this event
This is a rare opportunity where traditional folk performing arts, which can usually only be seen during ancient rituals and festivals handed down in various districts of Takasaki City, gather in one place. Traditional performing arts groups specializing in kagura, lion dance (shishimai), festival musical accompaniment (ohayashi), Yagibushi, and kiyari will perform, allowing visitors to appreciate living tradition right before their eyes. You can enjoy the performances while sensing the sentiments passed down from ancestors and the wonders of "genuine" arts. An annual grand raffle with luxurious prizes will also be held.
