Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the 2021 Uesugi Snow Lantern Festival that was planned to occur during the weekend of February 13-14 has been cancelled. With the health and safety of visitors and participants in the festival being of utmost priority, the decision was made to cancel the event.   We know that many were looking forward to the festival, but we hope that you will understand why this difficult decision was made.   Although the festival has been cancelled, we ask for the help of businesses, schools, and other groups, along with individual households in Yonezawa, in building small snow lanterns (“yuki bonbori”) to light up the city, showing the hope of the people of Yonezawa.   -----   제44회 우에스기 설등롱 마쓰리의(눈 축제) 개최 중지에 대하여   레이와3년2월13일（토）～2월14일（일）에 개최를 예정했던「제44회 우에스기 마쓰리」는、신형코로나바이러스 감염증 확대 상황을 감안하여、내장자나 관계자의 건강과 안전을 최우선으로 고려하여、개최 중지를 결정했습니다。   　마쓰리를 기대하고 있던 여러분들에게는、대단히 폐를 끼쳐 미안합니다만、이해해 주시기를 부탁드립니다。   　또한、축제는 취소되지만、시내를 희망의 등불로 비추기 위해、시내 기업이나 학교、단체、또、각 가정에서의 눈 등롱 제작에 협력해 주시기를 부탁드립니다。   ----- 关于中止举办第44届上杉雪灯笼节   计划于2021年2月13日星期六～2月14日星期日，举办的「第44届上杉雪灯笼节」、因为疫情的影响，考虑到来场者以及各位相关工作人员的健康和安全，将中止举办本届雪灯笼节。   　对本届雪灯笼节充满期待的市民以及各位准备前来观赏雪灯笼的朋友们，带来不便，我们表示真诚的歉意，敬请理解与支持。   　另外，虽然雪灯笼节无法举行，但是我们希望米泽市内能点燃希望之灯，期待市内企业，学校，各个团体，以及各个家庭能够一起制作特色雪窟窿，照亮米泽的夜空。   谢谢大家的理解与配合！
