Bad luck been haunting you lately? Well come on over to Kamado Shrine’s Daigomaku ritual, write your wish on a gomagi (votive stick) and toss it into the fire to burn all that bad luck away! While there enjoy a Chikuzen biwa (Japanese lute) performance, a dance performance of shrine maidens and a parade of Shinto mountain priests. For those feeling brave, walk barefoot over burning sacred coals (optional!).
