The annual festival of Chunobori Shrine is held on the last Sunday of September every year. Chunobori Shrine in Gokase Town, Miyazaki Prefecture, was originally founded at the top of Mt. Chunobori. It was integrated into Sankasho Shrine in the town in the late Meiji period (1868-1912) and was separated again and relocated to the present place in the later years.

The main dedication, the Araodori dance, is first performed at the annual festival of Sankasho Shrine held on the previous day and then at Chunobori Shrine on Sunday. The dancers in warrior costumes and carrying spears, bows and arrows, or guns dance valiantly in line and quietly in circle. It is said that the dance was introduced from Enozan Senkoji Temple in the town during the Tensho era (1573-1592) and has been handed down at these shrines for 400 years. It is designated as an Important Intangible Folk Cultural Property by the national government.
