Furubira Ebisu Shrine Festival <2025>
Date and Time
2025/9/13~14
September 13th (Sat) (Evening) Sarutahiko Fire Walking from 8:00 PM
September 14th (Sunday) (Main Festival) Sarutahiko Fire Crossing from 8:00 PM
*The Tengu fire walking event will be held on two days, Saturday and Sunday.
This is a ritual in which Sarutahiko, dressed in vermilion clothing and a Tengu mask, leads a procession through the town to purify the deity. The sounds of loud drums and lively flutes reverberate throughout the area, and at night the Tengu performs a firewalk, lighting a pillar of fire that reaches a height of about 3 meters. The Sarutahiko walks across the fire, kicking away sparks as he does so, eliciting loud cheers from the audience. This is followed by a lion dance and a mikoshi (portable shrine) also walking across the fire, bringing the festival to a climax. This is a famous festival that represents Furubira Town.
