2026 Jumangoku Matsuri Hokkoku Fireworks Daishoji Festival: A Full-Day Course

This is a full-day course centered on the Jumangoku Matsuri Hokkoku Fireworks Daishoji Festival, held on Sunday, September 13, 2026, around the plaza in front of Kaga City Hall in Daishoji, Kaga City, Ishikawa Prefecture. During the day, stroll through the town of Daishoji, a castle town dating back to the Edo period, visiting the storied grounds of Ezu Shrine and Zenshoji Temple, known for its 500 Rakan statues. In the afternoon, relax along the promenade beside the Kumasaka River, and have an early dinner in the evening. Once night falls, head to the area around the venue to watch the fireworks of this autumn festival, which honors the history of the former Daishoji Domain's 100,000 koku, a day plan that combines a leisurely stroll through a castle town with fireworks. The historic, atmospheric streets deepen the lingering impression of the fireworks. It's a great choice for a family autumn outing.
