A grand festival of Kifune Shrine also known as one the Three Great Boat Festivals of Japan. Portable shrines with sacred offerings of Kifune Shrine are towed by rowing small boats across the port with small and fast boats on the east and west along with musical boats. They then process down the streets and cross the waters to return to the shrine pavilions. They can be seen traveling over seawater for two days as the towing boats are navigated through the races. There are plenty of sights to see on both the sea and land, including the carriers of the floats decorated with flowers showing their strength and skill, the traditional Kashima dance, and the lively music.

神輿巡幸に際して辻々を清めるため、相模湾・伊豆半島沿岸部に伝承される神事舞踏「鹿島踊り」が奉納されます。
