May 5 The annual "Ginza willow Festival" was held on Children's Day.
Blessed with the weather and the temperature was a bit hot with 26 degrees Celsius, but with the theme of "a city full of smiles", the "Ginza Golden Parade" on Nishi Ginza Street began around 12:15, and various events were held It was done. Among them, I have seen the "Children's Dream Stage" that started this year, so I will introduce it.
A temporary studio and audience seats on Nishi-Ginza-dori 6-chome were set up, and a large audience including the interview team gathered. As a result of the recruitment, there were 35 performers in 9 groups with many groups of elementary school girls.
The executive committee seems to want to continue this "Children's Dream Stage" from next year onward, and it seems that the emphasis will be placed on judging by three jury members. The jury included the ambassador of sightseeing in Chuo-ku, "Takajo Azusa".
Before entering the judging
, there was a performance of the brass band at Musashino City No. 3 Elementary School as the foreground.
He had just won the gold prize at the competition and performed a wide repertoire (enka ballad, anime songs (Ponyo), jazz numbers, etc.).
After that, "Kids' Dream Stage" is finally the hip-hop dance of No. 1 "Each Hip" (9 people, matching yellow willow) hip-hop dance, No. 2 "Purple Cherry" (6 people, Saitama Prefecture), Jazz dance of No. 3 "H.S.P."

, 1 boy) street performance Juggling Show, last No. 9 "N&M" (2 people, Kanagawa Prefecture) Song and dance ...
Everyone showed the results of their daily practice to the fullest. A large number of spectators were applauding.
As a result of the judging, the champion was No. 8 "Komaru Haruto-kun", the runner-up was No. 1 "Heach Hip", and the third place was No. 5 "Art and Double Wy". Congratulations to all of you.
I hear that your dream is to conquer the world in street performance. My dream is big. I'm looking forward to it.
I think this "Children's Dream Stage" is a good opportunity for children to show off their performances. There was a lot of dance, but in the future, you will see the appearance of Chibiko in various fields such as chorus and rakugo. From next year onwards, the 2nd and 3rd ... will continue to be held, and we hope that the history will be accumulated as a powerful event of the "Ginza willow Festival". I'm looking forward to the "Children's Dream Stage" next year.
Then on May 3rd, the priests led the portable shrine and walked through 17 towns in shrine parishioner, along with the phoenix decorations. From then on, portable shrine walked along with the vigorous shouts of "Washyoi" or "Goodness."
