"The Battle of Kawanakajima" re-enactment of a battle in the Warring States Period, is scheduled to be held on Sunday, November 5, 2023, as the main autumn event in Fuefuki City.

​

● Date: Sunday, November 5, 2023

● Location: In front of Fuefuki City Hall (777 Ichibe, Isawa-cho, Fuefuki city)

​● Fee:  Free

This fireworks display is the finale of the "Fuefuki-shi Summer Festival" .  The close proximity of the launch site and spectator seating makes it feel as if you are under the umbrella of the fireworks.

​

Date: August 19 and 26, 2023

​

Location: Along the Fuefukigawa River in front of Fuefuki City Hall (upstream and downstream of the Ukai Bridge)

Time: 20:30-21:00

Cormorant fishing on the Fuefukigawa River is called kachiu (walking cormorant fishing), and unlike the style of many other cormorant fishing operations in which several cormorants are controlled in a small boat, cormorant fishing on the Fuefukigawa River is a "cormorant-artist" style in which a single cormorant is controlled as it walks along the river. Why don't you try such a valuable cormorant fishing experience? We look forward to your participation!

Date: Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays from July 20 (Thu.) to August 16 (Wed.), 2023, 20:00 - 20:50 *(Cormorant fishing will be held on July 20 and the cormorant fishing will be closed on August 17, but the cormorant fishing experience will not be available)

Location: In front of Fuefuki City Hall (777 Ichibe, Fuefuki-shi, Ishiwa-cho, Fuefuki-shi)

How to participate: Please fill out the registration form here.

Participation Fee: 3,500 yen per person (including a special "Cormorant" T-shirt)

Capacity: 2 groups per day (first-come-first-served basis, up to 3 people per group)

Requirements: Junior high school students or older, in good health, and able to work in the river.
