Deadline for application for groups to perform at the 「Festival of Wind Music」 is approaching

The 『Ishikawa Hyakumangoku Cultural Festival 2023』 will be held for 44 days from the opening ceremony at the Ishikawa Sports Center on October 15 (Sunday) to the closing ceremony at the Ishikawa Music Hall on November 26 (Sunday).

Various events are planned during this period, and on Saturday, November 4, a 「Brass Band Festival」 will be held at the Kanazawa Kagekiza under the sub-theme of 「Come, Blow, Ingiratoshimashimashii, Ishikawamangoku Brass Band Picture Scroll」.

Performing groups will be selected by the Agency for Cultural Affairs after deliberation by the Ishikawa Hyakumangoku Cultural Festival 202 Executive Committee, and applications for groups wishing to perform (about six groups are planned) have been accepted since the first day of the year until Friday, April 7, 2012.

For details, please visit the website of the 「Ishikawa Hyakumangoku Cultural Festival 2023 「Brass Band Festival」 Call for Performing Groups」.

Last year, the 「Brass Band Festival」 was held on May 1. This year’s festival will be held as part of the 『Ishikawa Hyakumangoku Cultural Festival 2023』, so expectations are high for what kind of brass bands will perform.
