Enburi is a traditional performing folk art that has been passed down from generation to generation within the Hachinohe Area since the time of the Nanbu domain. Today, many communities within the old Nanbu Domain area still practice Enburi, the forerunner being Hachinohe Enburi. But besides Hachinohe, many of the smaller towns and villages still practice and perform their versions of Enburi every year.
