Every year, the Horyo Kagura Festival is held on at the Ogami Shrine in Hachinohe on the second Sunday of May, and the "zenyasai" pre-festival event is the preceding Saturday. Both days feature performances of Horyo Kagura, a sacred shrine song and dance, and prefecturally designated Important Intangible Folk Cultural Asset.
