大太鼓めがけて、付け太鼓が突進！深夜まで熱狂する、天下の奇祭
Small portable drums charge at an enormous taiko drum!An unusual earthly festival that is filled with excitement until late at night

約400年の歴史を誇る気多若宮神社の例祭。神社での神事と古式ゆかしい「御神輿行列」に、動の「起し太鼓」、静の「屋台行列」が加わった三大行事で構成され、盛大な時代絵巻が繰り広げられます。祭りのハイライトは男たちによる「起し太鼓」です。町の辻々で行われる、大太鼓と付け太鼓の競り合いは大迫力。我先にと大太鼓に突っ込む町内各組の付け太鼓、それを防ごうとする大太鼓の護衛の攻防は深夜にまで及び、古川の町が活気に包まれます。
飛騨の匠の技が随所に施された祭屋台が立ち並ぶ「曳き揃え」では、その絢爛豪華な姿に圧倒されます。
