The highlight of the Shijō Kasa Boko is its children’s dance and music. With Ayagasa Boko, it’s unique in the Gion Festival saki matsuri‘s July 17 procession. In the dance, two boys wear costumes and “bear wigs” wave long poles in a lively dance. And six more boys accompany the dance with various percussion instruments: bells, drums, and clave sticks.
