Tsukiji Lion Dance Festival

Wed Jun 10 - Sun Jun 14, 2015 Namiyoke Inari Shrine

Time Out says

Happening once every three years, the Tsukiji Shishi Matsuri or Lion Dance Festival takes place at Namiyoke Inari shrine over five days. The festivities culminate in mikoshi (portable shrine) parades and the eponymous lion dancing on June 13 and 14, while around 60 food and souvenir stalls will be set up between Friday and Sunday. The 2015 edition will be the last of its kind before Tsukiji Market moves to Toyosu next year, so expect a raucous farewell atmosphere.
