The theme for the 30th Hitachinaka Festival was "Let's draw an exciting future ！".

The word "exciting" may mean various things to each person, such as expectations ・ dreams ・ excitement ・ hope, but it should always be a positive image. I hope that the children of Hitachinaka will have an exciting experience at the Hitachinaka Festival, fall in love with Hitachinaka, and become adults who will create a dreamy future for Hitachinaka. I also believe that we adults, who are in a position to nurture such children, are the ones who need to feel excitement. This year, we aim to create a festival that will create a format that will move even adults.

This year, in addition to the big event ・ Dance Planning ・ Dance Parade ・ Float and Mikoshi Parade, we are preparing new events planned by students. Furthermore, we are preparing a grand event to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the Hitachinaka Festival this year, which will be exciting and memorable for everyone, so please look forward to it.

Therefore, we would like to ask for your understanding of the purpose of the festival, and we would appreciate your cooperation and assistance.

In conclusion, we, the Executive Committee, would like to thank you for allowing us to hold the 30th Hitachinaka Festival, and we promise to continue the Hitachinaka Festival into the future with new challenges.
