There are many shops in the venue, such as dining and street stalls and flea markets, which deal with local specialties, and there are also many events for children, such as a pony contact corner, treasure search, and human grass horse race. Ten o'clock start. Free admission.

A festival that prays for shipping and maritime safety. After the pillar-raising and the sail-raising, the ship is operated in time with the ancient song of kneading, and the primship of the Shinkoshi is performed. Make a small sandpile in front of the front door and keep the salt and hondawala on it. When the ship approaches, it collapses and clears the way.
