2026 Yonago Gaina Festival Fireworks Display: A Full-Day Itinerary
This full-day itinerary is built around the Yonago Gaina Festival Fireworks Display (米子がいな祭 花火大会), held on Sunday, August 9, 2026, letting you enjoy Yonago City in Tottori Prefecture from midday onward. In the afternoon, take in sweeping views of the Sea of Japan and the Yumigahama Peninsula from the ruins of Yonago Castle, then enjoy the sea breeze at Minatoyama Park, which flourished as a gateway connecting to Sakaiminato (境港). In the evening, fill up on San'in flavors in the bustling area near Yonago Station. As night falls, move to the Yonago Port quay to enjoy the powerful spectacle of about 4,000 fireworks blooming one after another over the night sky above Lake Nakaumi. This fulfilling one-day plan, where the history of Castle Hill meets a port town's summer festival, is Yonago through and through.
