At the start of the Hamamatsu Festival, groups of men and women in traditional coats gather as if they are preparing for war. The air is filled with the sounds of people playing trumpets and banging on drums. After an opening fireworks ceremony, the kites will make their first flight. Teams run across the field holding the kites’ cords in their hands, using the wind to quickly help their kites sail high into the sky.
滨松祭开幕时，一群男男女女穿著传统服饰聚集在一起，就像要备战似的。空气中充满著人们吹喇叭及打鼓的声音。烟火开幕典礼过后，就会让风筝初次升空。队伍们手里拿著风筝线在场地奔跑，藉著风让风筝快速升空。
