Inuyama-City Japan Rhine Summer Festival and Long-Running Fireworks
Date: Aug 1,2026(Sat) ～ Aug 10(Mon)
Explosions of fire and sparks before Inuyama Castle
The Japan Rhine Summer Festival and Long-Running Fireworks explode high in the sky with national treasure Inuyama Castle lit up for a spectacular background.
The literally long-running fireworks are shot off continuously for about ten minutes each day over a span of ten days above Kiso River, between Inuyama City from Kakamigahara City in Gifu Prefecture. Watch in awe as the sequenced fireworks blossom into halos of radiant light in the serene night sky.
Note:
• The number of fireworks shot off for the final day on the 10th are the same as those shot off from the 1st to the 9th so there is no need to wait for the final day.
Approximately 300 fireworks shot each day
Canceled should water levels rise significantly
No spectator seating available
