You're going to be saving multiple thousands of dollars. In some cases, getting close to saving $10,000.
Nabuta festivals are amazing. It's these giant floats that they make out of rice paper and lights and wire and they are carried by team of about 20 people.
This is really special that you get to go on a cruise ship and spend an overnight there seeing that beautiful parade.

Save $9,400 on your 2027 Celebrity Millennium Japan cruise! 🚢 Discover the SECRET to booking the Nabuta Festival for less right now in June 2026. I am so excited to share this incredible find with you today. As we look ahead from June 2026, the demand for 2027 bucket-list travel is exploding, and I found a way to get you to the 2027 Nabuta Festival in Japan without the retail price tag. We are looking at a 12-night Best of Japan itinerary on the Celebrity Millennium departing July 26, 2027. While most people are searching for celebrity xcel updates, the real value right now is in these specific festival sailings where I can save you nearly $10,000 compared to the standard all-included rates you see online. In this video, I break down why the Celebrity Millennium is the perfect ship for this journey and why the concierge class vs suite class debate matters here. I have secured exclusive inventory where a Concierge Class veranda is just $7,614 for two people, including classic drinks and basic unlimited Wi-Fi. If you check the Celebrity site for this same festival cruise, you'll see prices as high as $17,344 for an apples-to-apples comparison. We are talking about an overnight in Aomori, Japan, to see the massive rice paper floats and join the parade—a true quintessential Japanese experience that usually sells out hotels years in advance. I’ve compared the celebrity solstice concierge class stateroom and other celebrity reflection concierge class reviews, and the value on this specific Millennium sailing is unbeatable. Whether you want an ocean view starting around $4,519 or the premium Concierge experience, these rates include a 100% refundable deposit for your peace of mind.
