A Summer Festival & Fireworks Viewing Party will be held at Higashiyama Park in Higashiyama-cho on Saturday, July 22, from 17:30 to 21:00!
Organized by the Higashiyama-cho Neighborhood Association, this local festival will offer a view of the Ashiya Summer Carnival fireworks from the park’s elevated grounds, along with Japanese taiko drumming, dancing, disaster-preparedness drills, a games corner, and food stalls serving yakitori, frankfurters, and more. Visitors can also enjoy the “Hana Toro” illuminated pathway, created with the help of high school students from “Ashiya-bu”!
The “Hana Toro” lights will be illuminated every day from 18:00 to 22:00 until after the Obon holiday, so there will be plenty of time to enjoy them even after the festival!
