❖ Tubarama Tournament
"Tubaraama" is a lyrical song that has been passed down through generations on Ishigaki Island and the surrounding islands. It is sung to a fixed melody, with various lyrics about love, the joys and sorrows of life, and more.
In Ishigaki City, the "Tubaraama Festival" has been held every year on the 13th day of the 8th month of the lunar calendar since 1947.
Under the beautiful moonlight of the thirteenth night, those with beautiful voices who have passed the preliminary rounds will compete.
