Akasaka Hikawa
Akasaka Hikawa Shrine was originally established in 951 near the entrance of Hitotsugi Street. During the Edo period, the shrine gained the deep reverence of the eighth shogun, Tokugawa Yoshimune, because the Kishu Domain had a residence in Akasaka. In 1730, the shrine was relocated to its current site, and records show that its annual festivals flourished from that time onward. The shrine’s most important ritual is the Reisai (Annual Festival), held on September 15. The lively events that take place around this ritual—such as parades of mikoshi (portable shrines) and floats, bon dances, and food stalls—are collectively called Shinnigiwai, and together they form what is known as the Akasaka Hikawa Festival. This year, the festival is scheduled for three days, from Friday, September 13 to Sunday, September 15. On the 13th, the Yoimiya Parade will feature the Hikawa float and local mikoshi against the backdrop of the evening streets. On the 14th, the Children’s Parade will showcase children carrying mikoshi along with a taiko float. On the 15th, the Shinkosai (Grand Procession) will unite five Hikawa floats and the shrine’s main mikoshi for a large joint parade.
