Highlights
About Hokukoku Hanabi 2026 Kanazawa Festival
- Enjoy Kanazawa Sightseeing: Plan to explore Kanazawa Station, Kenrokuen, or Higashi Chaya District during the day before heading to the fireworks in the evening.
- Book Hotels Early: Accommodation demand in Kanazawa peaks during this event. We recommend booking hotels near Kanazawa Station or the Kanazawa/Koramachi area well in advance.
- Use the Shuttle Bus: Since there is no parking at the venue, taking the shuttle bus from JR Kanazawa Station is the smoothest way to travel.
- Prepare for Heat: The riverbank can be very hot in summer. Don't forget to bring drinks, portable fans, and wet wipes.
