Nagaragawa Seiryu Summer Festival 2026

Grilled Ayu and Flowing Somen in the Garden

At the hotel's garden, guests can enjoy summer classics such as watermelon smashing, flowing somen, and ayu (sweetfish) grilled over charcoal. Also available is our signature Goheimochi made with Gifu miso, a local specialty.

Hotel-Quality 'Festival-Style' Food

A wide array of festival favorites will be available, including yakisoba, takoyaki, curry, and chilled cucumbers. Local soul food-inspired Kei-chan karaage and kushikatsu are also offered, ensuring high satisfaction for both adults and children.

Desserts Kids Can 'Make Themselves'

We offer DIY dorayaki and crepes, where children can choose their own toppings. Additionally, kids can shave their own kakigori (shaved ice), offering fun, curiosity-sparking experiences.

Experiential Activities Inspired by Traditional Festivals

Children can enjoy classic festival games such as goldfish scooping and super ball scooping. The main attraction is the chance to try making Mino washi 'korokoro' (traditional Japanese roly-poly dolls) — a hands-on craft experience.

Abundant Free Drinks

A variety of soft drinks, along with non-alcoholic cocktails such as 'Blue Hawaii' and 'Natsumikan Squash,' will be available.
