Date: Sunday, August 13, 2023

The fire festival is designated as an intangible cultural property of AsahiTown. The festival car is carried around the area while beating a large drum and gong, and is paraded to obuke Shrine. Inside the shrine grounds, the participants are divided into two groups, shirtless young people and older adults, and they beat each other with lit bundles of straw to drive away the evil spirits that have infected people.

Finally, a large torch 5 to 6 meters high is lit and a pillar of fire is raised.
This is a ritual that brings the plagues that are common in midsummer to heaven with a pillar of fire.
