About this event

This romantic, fantastical bamboo lantern illumination event has become a winter tradition in Nankoku City. The Kokubugawa river embankment is adorned with mini-garden-style bamboo lanterns, paper lanterns, and Japanese parasol displays. Fireworks launched from the illuminated cosmos flower fields are also a highlight. It is a festival of lights illuminating bamboo art installations with candles and LED lighting, with creative touches added every year.
