==History==
The festival in Shinjō, and in particular their use of floats called , is thought to have been initiated in 1756 in the midst of a famine during the Hōreki era. The event was planned by Tozawa Masanobu (1720–1756) who was the head of the Shinjō domain. The festival served not only to serve as a time of prayer for the upcoming harvest, but also to improve morale among the populace. The floats appearing in the festival are thought to have been initially influenced by the Gion Matsuri, but have since focused on themes related to ''kabuki'', legendary animals, and elaborate scenes in nature.
In 2009, the festival was granted the Important Intangible Folk Cultural Property designation by the Japanese government's Agency for Cultural Affairs.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Database of Registered National Cultural Properties )〕
