Setsubun is a Spring exorcism ritual originally on New Years Eve on the old lunar calendar. Devils known as oni are driven away and beans and other goodies are thrown to people to bring them good luck. Setsubun is on February 3rd. This is from 2023 when I went to three Setsubun events in one day. Juniso Kumano Shrine is short event around 1-2 in the afternoon.
