Good morning, everyone!
How are you in these days?
I would like to introduce our shop and festival in Kyoto!

Elegant dance performance by Maiko and Geiko on Kitano Odori

This dance performance by Maiko and Geiko of Kamishichiken Kabukai (Geiko quarters) was first held under the name of “Kitano Odori” in March 1952, in support of Manto-sai (Myriad Lantern Festival) which is held to commemorate the 1050th year anniversary of the Sugawara Michizane’s demise, a high-ranking court noble to whom Kitano Tenmangu Shrine is dedicated. The program is scheduled for 14 days from March 25 to April 7. The Kamishichiken Kaburenjo Theater welcomes you to join the festivities!

During the festival, there are two performances a day (1:30pm~ / 4:00pm~). It is interesting to note that there are two kinds of tickets for this festival: tickets with tea ceremony (￥4,800) and tickets without tea ceremony (￥4,300).

Highlight
Performance on Kitano Odori
Each performance has three programs. The first program is a dance drama which is one of Kitano Odori’s features. The play is rich in stories and lines are used frequently as it is based on the element of drama. The second program is a folk song. Maiko performs freshly whereas Geiko shows the skillful dance on the stage. The finale is one of the popular plays called “Kamishichiken Yakyoku”. Geiko who wear black kimono and Maiko with colorful kimono would join all together.
