On March 30, the second "Hiroro banquet" was held at Hirosaki Civic Cultural Exchange Hall in Hiroro (Ekimae-cho, Hirosaki City). On that day, nearly 150 rakugo enthusiasts gathered for Mr. Ichinosuke Harufutei who went up to Koza.

The first Hiroro banquet was held on February 3rd with the invitation of Takataro Yanagiya. This is the second time that Ichinosuke-san played three performances, "Ushi-Homeme", "Soratsu's Nail", and "Hanami-no-Tsuki". In 2012, the venue was filled with laughter, with 21 people who were promoted to a real victory without anyone, and without the taste of the talented people who are attracting attention from rakugo fans all over the country.

According to Masahiro Kawamura, the representative of the "Hirosaki Rakugo Fan Club", "some of the customers who came to the venue this time came from Akita, Morioka, and even Tokyo."

The third session will be a solo performance with Ichiuma Yanaitoi. It will be held at the same hall on August 31st.
