A sacred Kagura performance that has continued since the mid-Edo period. Following the Kanda school tradition (originating from Wakayama in Asakusa) of the Edo lineage, the shrine calls it Miyabi-ryu Dai-dai Kagura. It is dedicated on the 28th of January, May, and September each year. In an era with few entertainments, Kagura filled the shrine grounds with people of all ages. Today it is preserved by the Kagura Preservation Society as a traditional folk performing art.
