A new season In September, when the new season's yams are ready, the Igbo hold a harvest festival called Ikeji. During the festival, they give thanks to the yam spirit, Ihejioku, for a successful harvest. Many towns gather for the festival. Each one presents a dance or a piece of music, and a panel of judges chooses the best performances.
