In Rokugo Kamakura, three events are combined into one, including the bamboo shoot. Each of these three events is a "Nengoi" to pray for a good harvest and safety, an "exorcism" to remove misfortune, and a "Toshi-uranai" to predict the fortune of the year, and it is precious that this form has been preserved to the present day.

The festival begins with the hanging of tanzaku (strips of paper), called Tenpitsu, on which children have written their first calligraphy(kakizome: Japanese tradition to write the purpose of the year at the beginning of the new year) over green bamboo and displayed at the entrance.
