Hakozaki Shrine, renowned for its traditional Hakata festivals like the Tamatori Festival and Hojoya Festival, celebrates Setsubun with distinct fervor. The day’s festivities commence with a Shinto ritual at 10:00 a.m., followed by a captivating bean-throwing ceremony led by the enthusiastic students of nearby Hakozaki Elementary School. Visitors also have the unique opportunity to receive fortune beans, priced at ¥300, at the shrine’s special amulet distribution area. This melding of tradition and community involvement makes Setsubun at Hakozaki Shrine a memorable event.
