2026 Fuji Festival Full-Day Experience Course

A full-day course through Fuji City, the papermaking town, centered around the Fuji Festival, which begins at 7:30 PM on Sunday, July 26, 2026. Start your afternoon at Yoshiwara Shotengai, lined with traditional shops, and enjoy street food and shopping. Next, board the Gakunan Electric Train, known as one of Japan's rarest local lines, and enjoy a leisurely train journey. In the afternoon, head to Tago-no-Ura Port and savor the spectacular Mount Fuji views celebrated in the Man'yoshu anthology, as well as fresh whitebait cuisine. In the evening, secure your spot near Central Park while purchasing takeout dinner, and wait for sunset. From 7:30 PM to 8:30 PM, approximately 6,060 fireworks will launch into the night sky along the Junai River. This is the definitive Fuji City plan that lets you fully enjoy the city's papermaking heritage walk and one of the prefecture's largest-scale fireworks displays.
