Name: むらた盆踊り
Date & time: 8/9 (Sun) Time TBA
Venue: 柴田郡村田町・村田町中央公民館駐車場
蔵の町として知られる村田町の中心部、中央公民館の駐車場を会場に開かれる地域の盆踊り大会です。会場には地元の団体が出す屋台が並び、盆踊りの合間に軽食や飲み物を楽しみながら過ごせます。中央のやぐらを囲んで踊りの輪が広がり、子どもから大人まで町内の人たちが集まる、地域に根ざした温かい雰囲気の祭りです。歴史ある蔵の町並みのすぐそばで開かれるだけに、昼間に見た町の風景を思い出しながら夜のひとときを楽しめます。
Tips
駐車場が会場となるため、来場は徒歩や自転車がスムーズです。屋台は数に限りがあることもあるので、小腹が空いたら早めに立ち寄るのがおすすめです。夜は虫が多くなるので虫よけ対策をしておくと快適に過ごせます。
