Early Dinner Near Festival Start - A Quick Meal Before the Main Event
About this spot
Around Komise Street, various eateries serve local specialties like Kuroishi's famous 'tsuyu yakisoba' (noodles with thick gravy). As festival time approaches, foot traffic increases and families in yukata start appearing. Since Miyuki Park—where Neputa departs—is a short walk away, enjoy an early meal here before heading to the event.
Season & hours
Name: 黒石ねぷたまつり
Date & time: 7/30 (Thu)–8/5 (Wed) Time TBA
Venue: 黒石市内(御幸公園を出発点に市街地を運行)
2026年は7月30日から8月5日まで開催される、黒石市の夏を彩るねぷたまつりです。御幸公園を出発点に、扇形の灯籠を掲げたねぷたが笛・太鼓のお囃子とともに市街地をゆっくりと練り歩きます。弘前や五所川原の勇壮な大型ねぷたとは違い、地元の町内会や子どもたちが担ぐ手作り感のある山車が多く、こみせ通りの落ち着いた町並みとねぷたの灯りが調和する、津軽の小さな城下町らしい温かな夏祭りです。
Tips
御幸公園周辺は開始前から見物客で賑わいます。良い場所で見たい場合は16時台から公園周辺で待つと安心です。祭り期間中は周辺道路が一部通行止めになることがあります。
Tips
On festival day, traffic restrictions may begin in the evening. Aim for an early dinner around 4 PM to reach the venue comfortably.
Best time to visit
Duration: approximately 50 minutes. Early 4 PM is less crowded than typical dinner time, so seating is easier.
