About this spot
The "Nagai Water Festival Kurundt" held on August 8, 2026, in Nagai City is a summer festival unique to this town, which has developed along the Mogami River and waterways flowing through the town center. True to Nagai's philosophy of being a "town of water, greenery, and flowers," various family-friendly events are held in a cool, waterside atmosphere, with the town buzzing with activity from evening to night. Unlike large-scale dance parades like the Hanagasa Festival, this is a charming summer evening rooted in the local community.
