Summer Lantern Dream Festival 2026

About this event

This illumination event blends traditional culture with the manufacturing technology of Higashiosaka, lighting up the area with various lights. Visitors can also enjoy food and festival stall areas as well as workshops. An illumination-only preview is scheduled for the previous day. The venue, Hiraoka Shrine, is characterized by its tranquil grounds integrated with the rich nature of Mount Ikoma and is believed to bring blessings for matchmaking. On the same day, the Tomyo Festival and Etchu Owara Kaze-no-Bon hosted by Hiraoka Shrine will also be held, featuring an event to offer lights of gratitude to the deities and ancestors. Why not spend a moment at the end of summer in this fantastical world of light?
