- Kamezaki Community Summer Festival
- [Handa-City]
- Date : Annually from late July to early August
- The Kamezaki Community Summer Festival is held in Kamezaki, which is famous for the Shiohi Festival. It derives from the Annual Festival of Owari Sansha Shrine called the Sansha Festival, held since 1877. Although it was discontinued in 1962, it was revived in 1984 as the summer festival of the Kamezaki District Community Liaison Committee, and has been held as such ever since. This spectacular festival is also called the "Girls' Festival" because girls are also able to participate. A girl's dance is dedicated on a stage laid across the float's shafts. There are five floats, namely, from east to west: Shijinsha, Akibasha, Botansha, Karakosha and Asahiguruma.
