2026 Yutoku Summer Festival Fireworks - Full Day Enjoyment Course
A course to fully enjoy Kashima City, Saga Prefecture for a full day, with the Yutoku Summer Festival Fireworks launching from around the Higashiyama Gaien parking lot in Kashima City at 9 p.m. on August 1, 2026 (Saturday) as the star. After refueling at Michi-no-Eki Kashima, which overlooks Ariake Bay at lunch, leisurely stroll along the sake brewery street in Hizen Hamajuku, designated as a district of important traditional buildings. In the evening, pay your respects at Yutoku Inari Shrine, also known as "Chinsei Nikko," and enjoy the majestic landscape of vermillion-painted shrines lined up. Along the main approach, enjoy food stalls and souvenir shopping as evening meals. As darkness falls, head to the Higashiyama Gaien parking lot near the shrine and gaze up at the fireworks that light up the night sky. A full-day plan of Kashima in summer that greedily savors both the blessings of the Ariake Bay tidal flats and the atmosphere of a shrine town gateway. Recommended for families who want to enjoy historical walks and fireworks together.
