About this spot

The Naegi Andon Festival (苗木あんどん祭り) is a local festival traditionally held every August 14th at the Naegi Elementary School grounds. In 2026, the main festival has been cancelled due to forecast bad weather, but the fireworks display is still scheduled to begin at 7:30 PM. Carry the lingering impressions of the day spent at Naegi Castle Ruins and Nakatsugawa-juku into the evening, and close out the day with fireworks lighting up the night sky.
