No — there is no parking at the venue. Take the loop bus from Inashi Station (about 30 minutes) and get off at Shiyakusho-mae, right by the site; come by public transport.

When should I arrive?

Plan to arrive about an hour before the start. Space on the islet fills up early.

Is it suitable for children?

Yes. As the venue is a river islet, keep children away from the waterline and set a meeting point for the busy hours.

Can I photograph the fireworks?

Yes. Keep the river surface in the lower frame to capture the reflections, and be considerate with tripods in the crowd.

What should I know about food and payments?

Food stalls open in the festival square and generally take cash, so bring extra small bills. There is no paid seating.

Summary

The Ina Festival fireworks close the celebration on a river islet near the Tenryu–Mibu confluence, west of Ina City Hall in Nagano Prefecture, on August 11, 2026, from 19:30 to 20:00. Around 4,000 shells — including large tama rare in the prefecture — rise over the water, while food stalls and dance stages run in the adjacent festival square.

Overview

As the finale of the Ina Festival, the show sends up roughly 4,000 shells in half an hour over the Tenryu river islet, drawing about 45,000 spectators. Oversized shells that are seldom seen elsewhere in Nagano Prefecture headline the program. The adjacent 'You-ing Village' festival square hosts food stalls and stage performances. There is no parking at the venue: take the loop bus from Inashi Station (about 30 minutes) to Shiyakusho-mae, which stops right beside the site. The early 20:00 finish means planning your return bus ahead pays off.

Info for International Visitors

Best arrival time

Aim to arrive about an hour before the start. Viewing space on the river islet fills early. There is no parking at the venue, so plan to arrive by public transport — the loop bus from Inashi Station stops right at Shiyakusho-mae.

Best viewing spots

The launch site is a river islet near the confluence of the Tenryu and Mibu rivers. Secure a riverside vantage early to catch the bursts mirrored on the water.

With kids

The venue is an islet in the river — keep children well away from the waterline and within sight at all times. Crowds make separation easy, so agree on a meeting point beforehand.

Photography tips

Phone and camera photos are fine, but be considerate with tripods in the crowded areas. Keeping the river surface in the lower frame captures the reflections of the bursts too.

Payment

There is no paid seating. Food stalls open in the festival square and generally take cash, so carry extra small bills.
