It was decided at the general meeting of the host organization held on the 20th that Fukuoka City's traditional summer festival "Hakata Gion Yamakasa" will be held for the first time in three years in the same way as before the Corona disaster.
"Hakata Gion Yamakasa" is a traditional Hakata summer festival known for its brave "Tateki Yamakasa" and gorgeous "Ornamental Yamakasa". It was done.
On the 20th, the general meeting of "Hakata Gion Yamakasa Promotion Association" was held at Kushida Shrine in Hakata-ku, Fukuoka City, and it was unanimously decided to hold it for the first time in three years.
This is the same as before the Corona Hakata, with both "Tachiki Yamakasa" and "Ornamental Yamakasa".
Infection control will continue to be thoroughly implemented, and the policy is to oblige those involved to carry out vaccination and PCR tests.
I encourage the general public to watch it on TV to avoid crowding.
In addition, depending on the infection situation in the future, the scale of the event may be reduced or postponed.
Tadaya Takeda, chairman of the Hakata Gion Yamakasa Promotion Association, said, "I have heard many opinions that other festivals cannot be held without holding Yamakasa. I would like to ask you to watch it. "
