The Genshi-sai [fr; ja; zh] is one of the imperial court rituals . Grand festival .

Currently, it is a "personal festival" presided over by the Emperor himself at the three Imperial Palace shrines (Kashikodokoro, Koreiden, and Shinden) on January 3rd, and is a ceremony to celebrate the origin of the Imperial Throne and to worship the Imperial spirit and the gods of heaven and earth . “The origin of the Imperial Throne” refers to the “ Divine Decree of the Eternal Heaven and Earth .” [1]

The Genshisai Festival began on January 3, 1870 ( Meiji 3) (lunar calendar) [2], when the eight gods, the gods of heaven and earth, and the spirits of past emperors were worshiped at the Jingikan Hachiden Shrine. On January 3, 1873 (Meiji 6), it took on the current form of the Sanden Shinsai Festival. In the Imperial Household Rites Act enacted on September 19, 1908 (Meiji 41), it was designated a major festival. It is the first major festival held in the year. The law was abolished on May 2, 1947 ( Showa 22), but the Genshisai festival has continued to be held as usual at the Imperial Palace since 1948 (Showa 23).

According to the " Determining Holidays for Annual Festivals and Holidays " and " Matters Concerning Holidays ," the same name was a national holiday from 1874 (Meiji 7) to 1948 (Showa 23).
