About Aomori Nebuta Festival

The dates for 2027 are an expectation based on a fixed rule, from 2 to 7 August. They have not been confirmed, so check the organiser's announcement before planning travel.

The festival takes place in Aomori, in Aomori Prefecture. It is organised by the Aomori Nebuta Festival Executive Committee (青森ねぶた祭実行委員会).

Watching the parades from beside the route is expected to cost nothing and need no ticket. Reserved grandstand seats are a separate option and are sold ahead of time. In 2026 that involved a lottery first, then general sales, with an online ticketing platform for overseas visitors. Plans for 2027 have not been announced yet.
