Date & time: 8/14 (Fri) Time TBA

甘楽町商工会が主催する、地域の人々が中心となって作り上げるアットホームな夏祭りです。会場の甘楽ふれあいの丘には多くの屋台が立ち並び、盆踊りやステージイベント、花火の打ち上げなどで一日中賑わいます。大きな都市の祭りとは違う、顔の見える距離感で楽しめるのがこの祭りの魅力で、子ども連れの家族でものんびりと過ごせる雰囲気です。夜空に上がる花火を芝生に座って眺める時間は、夏休みらしいゆったりとした思い出になります。

Tips

屋台は会場内に多数出店されます。レジャーシートがあると花火観覧の場所取りに便利です。会場周辺は臨時駐車場が用意されますが、混雑が予想されるため早めの到着がおすすめです。
