2024 Gifu Nobunaga Matsuri Report


 


Over the weekend I was able to see the 2024 Gifu Nobunaga Matsuri. To be honest, I was a bit disappointed. You had two Nobunagas. Owari no Utsuke and Tenka Nobunaga. Nohime was there as well as Oichi. Unfortunately, no Saito Dosan or Luis Frois. In fact, the parade was too short. To make matters worse was the traffic. The participants had to wait at least seven to ten minutes before moving on. Nohime and Oichi were almost two blocks ahead of Nobunaga. They should have cut off traffic for at least twenty or thirty minutes so the parade can move smoothly and orderly. That never happened. Now was it worth going out of my way to see the parade even with all the mishaps? You bet it was worth it. I enjoyed seeing Nobunaga and Nohime. Before I forget, there was a teppo squad. Beautiful to see the guns fired. Again, I had fun, enjoyed myself, felt the presence of Nobunaga and Nohime in Gifu.

Nobunaga no tame!
