2026 Fukumi's Gion Festival Dedication Fireworks - Full Day Immersion Course

Centered on the Fukumi Gion Festival Dedication Grand Fireworks held on July 25, 2026 (Saturday), this one-day course explores Southern Shinano's canyons and hot springs. At midday, enjoy local flavors at Michi-no-Eki Shinano-ji Shimojo and stroll through Tenryukyo Gorge, famous for the Tenryu River's canyon artistry. In the afternoon, venture to Achi Village and relax at the foot bath in Hirugami Onsen. Evening brings you back to the Fukumi area of Anan Town; enjoy night stall dinner while waiting for the festival to begin. At 7 PM, fireworks dedicated to the local tutelary deity grace the mountain sky. Experience the canyon walk, hot springs, and the dedication fireworks passed down through the community festival—a quintessential summer plan for Southern Shinano. Beneath the cool night breeze of the high-altitude mountains, fireworks come alive.
