This weekend, I'm going to the Koto ward (区) festival. It's not very famous (有名), but I went last year and really enjoyed it.
In the morning, they have a demonstration of log rolling (木場の角乗). I saw some photos of it on this homepage, and it looks really interesting: http://wadaphoto.jp/maturi/edogei1.htm. Unfortunately (残念ながら), I was too late last year, and I didn't get to see it so I'm really looking forward (楽しみ）this year.
In the afternoon, they have a lion dance (獅子舞) and an event called 深川力持. It's really impressive (印象的). In this demonstration, strong men lift heavy bales of rice (米俵) over their heads and perform other feats of strength (力わざ). Here is a photo that I took last year:
