For the past 70 years, men who are in their unlucky years (42 years old according to the traditional Japanese age reckoning system) carry 100-kan shimenawa ropes and parade through the town before making an offering to the 500-year-old sacred Meoto Sugi tree in the shrine grounds. In addition, Kagura performances and a Dondo festival are held in the shrine grounds.
