遠野まつり
The Tono Festival, held after the Tonogohachimangu’s annual festival, is the largest event in Tono. About 60 traditional performing arts from the area meet in one hall. It is also known as a “local art festival” and a grand parade is held, attracting tourists from all over the country. Brave, splendid, and disciplined. The performances of traditional acts each have its own unique characteristics, and are impressive.
