The 70th Sagamine Festival - one of the most popular events of the calendar year - was held over the past weekend and was a great success, attended by students, families, teachers, and our local community.
Chancellor Hiroyuki Kurimoto gave a speech for the Opening Ceremony at the Active Learning Center (ALC) to congratulate everyone on their hard work to prepare for the festival. Following the speech, there was a grand performance from the NUCB Symphonic Ensemble.
At the main venue, food booths provided typical festival food such as fried chicken, noodles, ramen, and more. We were treated to a performance from a local yosakoi team (a unique style of dance), as well as a Live set from the Nagoya Guitar Girls Club, as well as dance performances by the K-POP Dance Circle and Street Dance Circle.
In addition, the Nagoya International High School (NIHS) and NUCB collaboration SDG's circle were in attendance
In addition, this year's NUCB Music Festival was held on a special stage outside the main venue, inviting live music bands and high school music clubs to perform. In the evening, the school festival LIVE "Novelbright" was held in the gymnasium.
