Roadside Station Nagomi no Sato (道の駅なごみの里) - Tsuwano Koi, Koi, Koi Festival Venue

Flow of the course

About this spot

The Tsuwano Koi, Koi, Koi Festival (つわの鯉・恋・来いまつり) has a unique name that layers the presence of Tsuwano's symbolic 'koi' (鯉, carp) with a wordplay on 'koi' (恋, love) and 'koi' (来い, come). In 2026 it is held on August 29 at the Roadside Station Nagomi no Sato (道の駅なごみの里), marking its 30th anniversary this year. It bustles with events such as local performing arts shows and prize drawings, and fireworks are scheduled to launch from around 20:10, the first in seven years. Recalling the carp in the moat along Tonomachi Street (殿町通り) that you toured earlier in the day, this playful summer send-off festival, so characteristic of Tsuwano, lets you enjoy deepening family ties and bonds.
