- - - - - KIGO for August 3 Akita Lantern Festival kantoo 竿燈 / 竿灯 (かんとう) "lantern on a pole" quote The Kanto Matsuri ("pole lantern festival") is a Tanabata related celebration in Akita City, held every year from August 3rd to 6th. The highlight of the festival is an impressive display of skill in which performers balance kanto, or long bamboo poles with arrays of paper lanterns attached to the end. The kanto poles come in different sizes with the largest measuring 12 meters, weighting 50 kilograms and carrying as many as 46 paper lanterns, lit by real candles. To the sound of drums, flutes and onlookers chanting "dokkoisho, dokkoisho", each kanto is hoisted up by a single performer who balance them on end using various techniques. The performers change every few minutes and gradually add extensions to the pole until the kanto are at their maximum height. - - japanguide MORE wkdfestivalsaijiki.blogspot.jp/2010/08/kantoo-lantern-festival-akita.html
