Events &Festivals

I want to know about examples of Setsubun Festivals.

Distinctive Setsubun festivals include the ones at Yoshida Shrine where demons make an appearance, Ruzanji Temple, Mibu-dera Temple where Nenbutsu Kyogen is performed, Senbon Enma-do Hall, Matsuo Taisha Shrine where Iwami Kagura offering is performed, Maiko and Geisha perform dance offerings and bean throwing at Yasaka Shrine, and Kitano Tenmangu Shrine (also home to Kyogen). Also, during the Setsubun Festival at Heian Shrine, the Dainanogi is held, which is a reenactment of the Oinashiki, an event held at Heian Shrine that is said to be the origin of Setsubun.
