Witness a spectacular display of lantern rafts and fireworks near Tokyo. This event is FREE!
Fireworks commence at 7:15 PM. Due to high attendance, we recommend arriving at least an hour early.
This remarkable river festival occurs annually in August, inviting visitors to immerse themselves in the natural beauty of Nagatoro. Don’t miss the renowned natural monument “Iwadatami,” a massive rock terrace overlooking the Arakawa River, for optimal views. Enjoy delightful street food and witness the festive water floats and lanterns carrying prayers for maritime safety.
As the floats and lanterns drift down the river, prepare to be amazed by 3,500 breathtaking fireworks lighting up the expansive evening sky. 🎆
