Interestingly it was only after the Tokugawa’s assistance in reviving the festival that it became known as the Aoi Matsuri (葵祭).
Until this time is was known as the 'Kamo Matsuri' (賀茂祭), or simply as 'The Festival' (祭).Kyōto has "3 Great Festivals": the Aoi Matsuri, Gion Matsuri and Jidai Matsuri.
In the past the Aoi Matsuri was known as the 'Festival in the North' to differentiate it from Iwashimizu Hachimangū's 'Festival in the South'.
