Setagaya Hachimangu Autumn Festival

This annual autumn matsuri (festival) takes place at Setagaya Hachimangu, which is one of Setagaya ward’s larger shrines well known for its dohyo (sumo ring). Expect hono-sumo matches on Saturday at 2pm, followed by a host of festivities at 3pm. On Sunday, you can catch the mikoshi (portable shrine) parade at 10am. As with all festivals in Tokyo, there will be stalls offering street food such as fried noodles as well as grilled items.
