An Autumn Port Town Festival with Illuminated Kiriko Lanterns Parading Through the Streets
About this spot
An autumn festival that colors Noto, held throughout Ogi Town in Suzu City, known as the birthplace of set-net fishing. The 2026 festival runs for 2 days on September 19-20, with this course's target day being the first day. Large and small kiriko lanterns lit by lanterns parade through the streets of the port town, and as whistles and drums echo, the festival builds momentum into the night. This small port town that has lived alongside the sea becomes a special evening filled with crowds, offering the opportunity to experience Noto's simple and warm festival atmosphere.
