The last day of Iyo-Mishima Drum Festival. Some hundred people carried 2.5-ton drum and went into the Mishima Shrine to dedicate to the god. As for weigh, Nihama's drum stand is huge and heavy, but per weigh when carrying, this drum beats it. At this time of the year, various festivals are held every day in the north of Shikoku district.
