The main attraction of the festival is... demons?!

The Hana Festival is a traditional and artistic festival which has continued for more than 700 years and is designated a national important intangible folk cultural property.
Ashikome's version of the festival features true authenticity with innumerable decorations and strict religious rites. The most spectacular point of the festival comes at dawn.
An entourage of demons comes out and quelches any fatigue experienced by spectators. A special demon then comes in and strikes down a hornet nest strung above a hearth, and whoever catches it is said to enjoy a year filled with luck.
