{{transliteration|ja|Hinamatsuri}} is one of the {{nihongo|five seasonal festivals|五節句|[[gosekku]]}} that are held on auspicious dates of the [[Chinese calendar]]: the first day of the first month, the third day of the third month, and so on.

The primary aspect of {{transliteration|ja|Hinamatsuri}} is the display of seated male and female dolls (the {{nihongo3|"male doll"|男雛|obina}} and {{nihongo3|"female doll"|女雛|mebina}}), which represent a Heian period wedding,<ref name="JT"/> but are usually described as the Emperor and Empress of Japan.<ref name="Shoaf">{{Cite web |url=https://people.clas.ufl.edu/jshoaf/japanese-dolls/hina/ |title=Girls' Day Dolls |last=Shoaf |first=Judy |publisher=[[University of Florida]] |access-date=1 March 2018}}</ref> The dolls are usually seated on red cloth, and may be as simple as pictures or [[origami|folded paper dolls]], or as intricate as carved three-dimensional dolls. More elaborate displays will include a multi-tiered {{nihongo|doll stand|雛壇|hinadan}} of dolls that represent ladies of the court, musicians, and other attendants, with all sorts of accoutrements. The entire set of dolls and accessories is called the {{nihongo||雛飾り|hinakazari}}.<ref name="nippon.com"/> The number of tiers and dolls a family may have depends on their budget.
