Igomori Festival

Held over a three-day period every January, the Igomori Festival’s purpose is to ask the gods to calm a demon living in the Hahasonomori area. Priests and volunteers carry a giant burning reed torch through town at night and pretend to scatter seeds. There is a tradition in which all houses in the village refrain from making any noise during the three days of the festival.
