2026 Kawakami Gorge Fireworks Festival Full-Day Course
A full-day course featuring the Kawakami Gorge Fireworks Festival on September 12, 2026 (Saturday) as the main attraction, allowing you to enjoy the nature and history of Saga City from afternoon through evening. In the afternoon, visit the Saga Castle Honmaru History Museum located on the restored Saga Castle ruins to learn about the history of Saga Domain, then take a leisurely walk along the moat of the adjacent Saga Castle Ruins. Afterward, head to the naturally rich Kawakami Gorge area in the northern part of Saga City and spend a relaxing time surrounded by the greenery along the Kase River. In the evening, enjoy food near the venue and secure a viewing spot, then watch approximately 1,500 fireworks reflected on the river surface as dusk settles over the Kase River. This is an indulgent plan to rediscover the charms of Saga City, combining the atmosphere of the castle town, the natural beauty along the clear stream, and the fireworks that light up the autumn night sky.
