【欧洲·比利时】布鲁塞尔欧梅岗巡游：一年一度的传统游行和大众节日 Ommegang of Brussels, an annual historical procession and popular festival（2019年）

每年7月的两个晚上，一年一度的历史游行和流行节日都会在布鲁塞尔的历史中心举行。庆祝活动以十字弓比赛和萨布隆教堂的仪式开始。在周围的街道上，各种团体组成了一个大型游行队伍。游行队伍沿着一条1.5公里长的路线穿过这座城市到达格兰德广场，在那里，这些团体加入了布鲁塞尔的治安官和各种形式的活遗产的持有者。他们一起游行，一些团体参加自1930年以来的有机表演。起源于1348年的一项宗教活动，这一传统在18世纪衰落，根据对1549年查尔斯五世参加的游行的描述，现代的奥梅冈在1928-1930年被重建。如今，这个传统已经演变成了一个节日，当地的传统活动。参与者中有各种各样的志愿者，他们一起会面并准备各自的角色，鼓励年轻成员参与其中。这些团体已成为俱乐部协会，在7月初的奥梅甘会议期间，与其他团体会面和社交。孩子们和他们的父母一起参加，许多人已经参与了四五十年。该活动的可行性不断受到监控，监督Ommegang的协会持续参与下一次活动的筹备和推广。

2019年度列入人类非物质文化遗产名录。

Ommegang of Brussels, an annual historical procession and popular festival takes place annually over two evenings in July in the historic centre of Brussels. The celebration begins with a crossbow competition and a ceremony in Sablon Church. In the surrounding streets, various groups form a large procession. The procession follows a 1.5 km route through the city to the Grand-Place, where the groups join the Magistrate of Brussels and bearers of various forms of living heritage. Together, they march around and some groups partake in an organic performance that has evolved since 1930. Having originated as a religious event in 1348, the tradition declined in the 18th century and the modern Ommegang was then recreated in 1928-1930 based on descriptions of the procession Charles V attended in 1549. Nowadays, the tradition has evolved into a festive, local heritage event. Among the participants are various groups of volunteers who meet and prepare their roles together, encouraging younger members to get involved. These groups have become club associations which, during the Ommegang in early July, meet and socialize with other groups. Children attend with their parents, and many people have been involved for forty or fifty years. The viability of the practice is constantly monitored, and the association overseeing the Ommegang is continuously engaged in preparing and promoting the next event.
