This 450-year-old festival is a Fukuoka intangible folk cultural asset. A large mikoshi (portable shrine) is pulled across the Hikosan River by 60 men along with 11 luxuriously decorated floats. On Saturday evening, enjoy food and drink along the river and illuminated floats before they return to the other side on Sunday.
