OVERVIEW

Sailing ships large and small flock to Japan's only tall ship event, held in the port town of Nagasaki.

The festival includes events centred around the ships including sail drills, tours of the ships, and cruises around the Port of Nagasaki, as well as hands-on classes such as canoeing, yachting and rope-tying.

Along with illuminations, there will be fireworks on Saturdays and Sundays during the event period.

There will be many more events and souvenir vendors available on site as well.
