Summary
The Rei Festival's flowing-lantern fireworks light up the Tadami River in Yanaizu Town, Fukushima on August 10, 2026, 7:30-9:00 pm. About 7,000 shells launch while some 800 lanterns drift down the gorge water — their sound echoing off the riverside cliffs.
Overview
The 89th Rei Festival lantern-fireworks display takes place along the Tadami River in Yanaizu Town on August 10, 2026, running 90 minutes from 7:30 pm with about 7,000 shells. At dusk, floating lanterns set off down the multicolored river — roughly 800 of them — while the fireworks, including underwater pieces, niagara cascades and 10-gou class shells, light the gorge above. The valley geography bounces the sound off the cliffs for a distinctive resonance. Paid seating is available; access runs via Aizu-Yanaizu Station (15 minutes on foot) or the Aizu-Bange interchange (about 10 minutes by car), with 1,300 free spaces plus paid sections requiring reservation.
