2026 Misato Town Gonokawa River Fireworks Festival - Full Day Course

A full-day course centered around the Misato Town Gonokawa River Fireworks Festival held on Saturday, August 1, 2026, where you can enjoy the nature and culture of Misato Town and its surroundings throughout the day, starting from afternoon. Misato Town, located beside the Gonokawa River that flows gracefully through the mountains of the Chugoku range, is blessed with abundant green and clear waters. In the afternoon, you'll visit the Road Station and nearby spots known as filming locations, then head to the Gonokawa riverbank in the evening to secure a viewing spot and enjoy the cool evening breeze. After sunset, you'll experience about 30 minutes where you can feel the fireworks reflected in the river and the sound echoing through the mountains with your whole being. The sight of approximately 3,000 fireworks bursting successively into the night sky is unique to Misato Town, where rivers, mountains, and starlit skies interweave. We cordially invite you to experience the true delight of summer fireworks enjoyed with your family at a quiet riverside in the mountains—different from large fireworks festivals in urban areas.
