Kotohira Autumn Festival (Shikoku)

Hi,

I understand that Kotohira Autumn Festival (Shikoku) is held annually in November. However, is the date Nov. 10 or both Nov. 9 and 10 in 2017 ?

Thank you.

It is said that the festival of Kotohira-gu(Konpira) is from October 9th to 11th every year.

Hi Haro1210,

Thank you.

Sorry.
As I looked at the information now, there was also a festival on November 10.
The place is also Kotohira-gu(Kompira-gu) Shrine.
It seems that it will move from Omon(or Daimon?大門) (365th row) to the main shrine at 9:30.
