Kyushu, Oita Prefecture, Bungo Ono City
On February 8, 2025, the “Bungo Ono Dondo-yaki” was held in Ono Town, Bungo Ono City.
A roughly 20-meter-high dondo was decorated with New Year pine ornaments and shimenawa brought by attendees.
After the Shinto rites, stage events such as kagura and drum performances entertained a large crowd.
After fireworks, the organizing committee and local junior high students prayed for good health and safety before igniting the dondo.
The crackling sound and the towering blaze of the dondo were truly spectacular.
