横屋地車保存会（だんじり）は兵庫県神戸市東灘区魚崎北町の横屋八幡神社に保管されている横屋のだんじりを維持管理するとともに、無形文化財である鳴り物を地域の若者に伝承することを目的に運営されております。本祭りは５月４日・５日の両日で、５月５日にはＪＲ住吉駅近くの本住吉神社に野寄地区･岡本地区と共に宮入りをしています。秋祭りは９月１４日に町内だんじり巡行をしております。大晦日の夜には横屋八幡神社の境内にて樽酒･甘酒の振舞いも実施しております。年間を通して、伝統文化の継承を目的として子供を対象とした無料鳴り物教室を月に１回開催しています。また夏休みには子供たちのために近くの川井公園にてラジオ体操を７月２１日から８月３１日まで毎朝実施しております。
The aims of the Yokoya Danjiri Preservation Society are to preserve the Yokoya Danjiri housed at Yokoya Hachiman Shrine in Uozaki-Kitamachi, Higashinada Ward, Kobe City and to pass on the intangible cultural asset of playing traditional percussion instruments to children in the community. Society activities include participation in the local danjiri festival held on March 4th and 5th. On the 5th, danjiris in our vicinity, including those from the Noyori and Okamoto areas, make a ceremonial entrance and gather at Moto-Sumiyoshi Shrine near JR Sumiyoshi Station. Our danjiri also appears on neighborhood streets on the 14th of September. On New Year's Eve, visitors to Yokoya Hachiman Shrine are treated to "amazake" sweet rice wine and "taruzake" rice wine from a wooden cask. We also hold percussion instrument classes for children offered free of charge once a month or so for the purpose of passing on traditional culture to the next generation. Additionally, in summer, we offer a program of radio calisthenics for children at the nearby Kawai Park every morning from July 21st to August 31st.
