Japanese fireworks festivals

Overview

Fireworks festivals in Japan have been held and scheduled across various regions during the summer and autumn of 2026.

In the Fuji region, the Yamanakako Fireworks Festival commenced at Lake Yamanakako with a display of approximately 10,000 fireworks. This event is part of a broader series of shows occurring across the Fuji Five Lakes.

In other locations, the 77th ‘Toro Nagashi and Grand Fireworks Festival’ in Tsuruga City attracted roughly 220,000 spectators in mid-August, though observers noted a shift toward artistic single shots rather than previous scales of display. Looking ahead to October, the ‘Oyama Fireworks’ in Tochigi Prefecture is scheduled to feature 20,000 shells, with ticket sales for new viewing areas on the Omoigawa riverbank beginning in September.
