NEWTOWN is an annual event held in the Tama area and planned by CINRA.NET under the slogan, "A new cultural festival created by everyone. The appeal of this event is that you can experience music, art, movies, theater, dance, literature, rakugo, and other culture all mixed together in one venue, but the event is expanding every year due to its popularity, and it is impossible to play through all the contents! The event is so popular that it is impossible to play through all of the contents.
The article in which "Huinamu" reported on the first edition isthis way (direction close to the speaker or towards the speaker)The last time I saw "CINRA" was inReport herefor more information.
Now, "NEWTOWN" will be held for the fourth time this year. In addition to the former main venue "Digital Hollywood University Hachioji Production Studio (former Sanbonmatsu Elementary School)" in Tama New Town, the Parthenon Boulevard in front of Tama Center Station has been added as a new venue. This will more than quadruple the size of the venue (!) and increase the number of contents to approximately 300 last year. and the number of contents will be greatly expanded from about 300 last year.
As in previous years, there will be special live music performances related to "CINRA" as well as talk shows, Bon Odori dancing, workshops, a children's playground, and a lot more for men and women of all ages to enjoy. It is also a good place to visit as an introduction to the world of art, entertainment, and rakugo, which are usually rare opportunities for people to come into contact with.
Even just a difficult event to enjoy everything becomes even bigger. On the other hand, you will definitely find content that you are interested in. You will not lose anything by going.
