The "Nanukabi Okuri" was held on August 7th at the Iwakigawa riverbed, and the Hirosaki Neputa Festival closed.

The Neputa Festival, which is the Hirosaki summer festival, is one of the four major Hirosaki festivals held over a week. "Nanukabi Okuri" is an event that started in 2011 in hopes of the reconstruction of the Great East Japan Earthquake. The Neputa that have been toured are sent clean with flames and the finale of the Hirosaki Neputa Festival is displayed.

On the bank along the Iwaki River, there were 19 large-scale Neputa lined up this year, and there were many visitors on the riverbed. There are five Neputa that are sent by fire, and when the fire is released, the flame burns up in a blink of an eye, and the crowded visitors stare at the camera or mobile phone and take pictures, staring at the Neputa that collapses and falls. It was.
