I went to the Tokyo Fire Department, Water Fire Department pageant.
On May 26, the Tokyo Fire Department's "Water Fire Pageant" was held at Harumi Wharf Park, where firefighting boats were discharged and rescue training by helicopter were conducted.
Held for the first time in five years. A lot of visitors in the new city.
A week ago, the Tokyo Minato Festival, which was previously held in Harumi, was held at the Tokyo International Cruise Terminal, where I learned about the first water firefighting pageant in five years. It used to be held together with Minato matsuri Tokyo, but after all, this is done in Harumi in Chuo-ku, which has a deep connection. The beginning of the water firefighting is a fire boat located at the Kyobashi Fire Station Tsukiji branch office in 1936. On the day, I took the Edo bus that extended to Harumi Wharf Park, but the bus was full on the way. The venue was already crowded with a large audience.
The curtain began with the performance of the Tokyo Fire Department Music Band and the performance of the Color Guards Corps.
It was quite powerful, such as water discharge of fire boats and rescue training from helicopters.
I was running around like a top while watering.
The training was to rescue passengers jumping into the sea from a houseboat that caused the fire. The helicopter that hoveres the low sky is powerful.
Finale with the simultaneous water discharge of five colors. It was an hour very fast.
At the venue, a town opening event in the west district of Harumi 5-chome was also held.
At the park stage of the venue, after the pageant, a town opening ceremony was held in the west district of Harumi 5-chome, and there was a performance by wadaiko. "Koshiichi Taiko" is said to be a wadaiko club that is active at Echizen Hajime Hori-chome, the old town name, which was located at present Shinkawa 2-chome. I was often heard. At the opening of the newly born city, there is a place where you can feel a little bit about the drum performance of the lost town name.
