夏祭り is a song by JITTERIN'JINN, which was used as the team song for the Tokyo Yakult Swallows baseball team, and as a commercial song for many commercials from the pachislot game CR Fever Dai-Natsumatsuri by Sankyo. This track is also JITTERIN'JINN's fourth single, before appearing in the Punchout (パンチアウト, Punchout^?) album on September 1990. A cover version of 夏祭り, sung by mao, was playable in arcade titles, starting with pop'n music 17 THE MOVIE. It also appeared as a downloadable song in the now defunct mobile game, pop'n music (i-αppli)

夏祭り received an EASY chart in pop'n music Sunny Park, replacing its old 5-Buttons chart, as well as UPPER Charts in pop'n music 解明リドルズ. This song was also added to pop'n music Lively on June 2nd, 2021; and later on, its UPPER charts were included in the same game on October 31, 2022.

On December 2, 2024, 夏祭り and its UPPER charts were removed from pop'n music arcades.

Lyrics

 君がいた夏は
 遠い夢の中
 空に消えてった
 打ち上げ花火
 
 君の髪の香りはじけた
 浴衣姿がまぶしすぎて
 お祭りの夜は胸が騒いだよ
 はぐれそうな人ごみの中
 ｢はなれないで｣ 出しかけた手を
 ポケットに入れて握りしめていた
 
 君がいた夏は
 遠い夢の中
 空に消えてった
 打ち上げ花火
 
 君がいた夏は
 遠い夢の中
 空に消えてった
 打ち上げ花火

 kimi ga ita natsu wa
 tooi yume no naka
 sora ni kietetta
 uchiage hanabi
 
 kimi no kami no kaori hajiketa
 yukata sugata ga mabushisugite
 omatsuri no yoru wa mune ga sawaida yo
 haguresou na hitogomi no naka
 "hanarenaide" dashikaketa te wo
 POCKET ni irete nigirishimete ita
 
 kimi ga ita natsu wa
 tooi yume no naka
 sora ni kietetta
 uchiage hanabi
 
 kimi ga ita natsu wa
 tooi yume no naka
 sora ni kietetta
 uchiage hanabi

 The memory of a summer with you
 is in a distant dream
 Where the fireworks that had disappeared
 into the dark night sky

 The sweet smell of your hair was spreading
 You looked so well and bright in your yukata
 I was feeling very excited on the festival night
 Through the crowd of people we almost got separated
 Saying "Don't be far from me", I almost tried to hold hands
 But I put back my hands and crunched it in my pocket

 The memory of a summer with you
 is in a distant dream
 Where the fireworks that had disappeared
 into the dark night sky

 The memory of a summer with you
 is in a distant dream
 Where the fireworks that had disappeared
 into the dark night sky
