The 19th Kushimoto Festival—Kushimoto’s Sizzling Summer Is Here Again!

The Kushimoto Festival is a summer tradition that draws many town residents. With events like the traditional Kushimoto-bushi dance and the fireworks display, the entire town is filled with a festive atmosphere.

The fireworks launched at Kushimoto Fishing Port offer an incredibly powerful experience, as the launch site is very close to the spectator seating!
