Yasaka Shrine Setsubun Festival 2026

625 Gionmachi Kitagawa, Higashiyama Ward, Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture
The highlight of the Yasaka Shrine Setsubun Festival is the dance offerings and bean-throwing performed by geiko and maiko from the hanamachi.
At Yasaka Shrine’s Setsubun Festival, the bean-throwing is done with participants calling only “Fuku wa uchi” (good fortune in). This tradition stems from the belief that no oni (demons) reside within the shrine grounds, so there is no need to shout “Oni wa soto” (demons out).

Dance offerings and bean-throwing: From four hanamachi—Pontocho Kabukai, Miyagawacho Kabukai, Gion Kobu Kabukai, and Gion Higashi Kabukai—beautiful geiko and maiko present gagaku and imayo performances, followed by bean-throwing.
The fortune beans (offering fee 300 yen) distributed at Yasaka Shrine’s Setsubun Festival always include a raffle ticket that guarantees a prize, making them extremely popular each year.
Offering fee: 300 yen
No blanks in the raffle (everyone wins something)
Raffle draws take place on the spot at the raffle venue
Items distributed: fortune beans, skewered talismans, and other festival-limited offerings. Some fortune beans include a prize raffle ticket.
After the dances end, geiko, maiko, and men and women born in the zodiac year corresponding to Setsubun toss beans from the Maiden stage. This moment offers the only chance to receive fortune beans handed directly to you. The area in front of the Maiden stage fills with excitement, and the shrine’s atmosphere transforms into the lively buzz of a true Setsubun festival.

Minase Shrine

3-10-24 Hirose, Shimamotocho, Mishima District, Osaka Prefecture

Minase Shrine stands on the site of an Imperial villa from the Heian period once used by Emperor Go-Toba. The shrine enshrines three emperors: Emperor Go-Toba, Emperor Tsuchimikado, and Emperor Juntoku. After the Jōkyū War, following Emperor Go-Toba’s exile to the Oki Islands, Nobushige Minase and his son Chikanari Minase—who had served the retired emperor—built a memorial hall on the former Minase Imperial Villa site to honor his spirit, and that is considered the origin of the shrine.

Selected as one of the 100 Famous Waters: Rikyu no Mizu
One of Minase Shrine’s notable features is Rikyu no Mizu, a spring chosen for the Environment Agency’s list of 100 Famous Waters. This spring water has long been used as an offering to the deities, and many visitors still come to collect it. It is said that Sen no Rikyū favored this water, and a tea-offering ceremony using it takes place each year in the shrine’s tea room, Toshintei (Toshin-tei Tea Room). Visitors may take up to 20 liters home per person. Water collection hours are from 6:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Yasaka Shrine is the head shrine of roughly 2,300 Yasaka shrines and other shrines nationwide that enshrine Susanoo-no-Mikoto.

Known as “Gion-san,” Yasaka Shrine is famed for blessings such as warding off bad luck, matchmaking, and beauty, and its charms, oil-absorbing papers, and other amulets are popular.

It is also famous for hosting the Gion Matsuri and is widely cherished as a focal point of Kyoto tourism.

Adjacent Maruyama Park is designated a National Place of Scenic Beauty, and in spring it bustles as Kyoto’s premier cherry‑blossom viewing spot centered on the Gion Shidarezakura. In autumn, together with nearby Kiyomizu-dera Temple and Kodaiji Temple, it is enjoyed as a renowned autumn foliage site.
