たかのす太鼓まつり
Share

This festival is headlined by the Kita-Akita Drum Group and includes special guest performances. During the festivities, two drummers are selected to represent the upper and lower neighborhoods of Takanosu and Tsuzureko. Prepare to be astounded as the sounds of drums fill the air. Normally, drummers from these upper and lower neighborhoods do not perform together, not even at the Tsuzureko Reisai Festival in July. Enjoy the unbelievable giant drum competition, as well as the various smaller performances held throughout the city! The festival is held every year on the second Sunday of September.
