About this event

Held in Honbetsu Town, Hokkaido, "Honbetsu Mame-maka Night 2027" is a unique event that fuses the ancient Japanese traditional bean-throwing ritual (mamemaki) with the promotion of Honbetsu, renowned as Japan's top bean town. The main attraction is the powerful "Geki Mamemaki!" featuring various ogres (oni), making it a high-energy Setsubun event that blows away the cold. In addition, there are plenty of bean-centric activities such as the "Bean Bath," "Bean Blessing Prayer," and "Bean Shower," offering fun for both children and adults. Themed around beans, the signature specialty of Honbetsu Town, this event aims for regional revitalization and the continuation of traditional culture. Through unique experiences found only in the bean town, participants can enjoy a fun-filled day.
