The Toyama Shinko Fireworks Festival, held at Kaio Maru Park in Imizu City, Toyama Prefecture, is a grand summer event that paints the night sky and the sea with light. Against the majestic silhouette of the large sailing ship Kaio Maru, approximately 2,000 fireworks will be launched. The light displays reflecting off the ocean surface will transport visitors into a truly magical and dreamlike world.
The greatest charm of this festival is the production that maximizes its seaside location. In particular, the "Water Surface Starmines," which appear to bloom directly on the ocean waves, offer a unique beauty different from traditional land-based fireworks. The contrast between the illuminated sailing ship Kaio Maru and the colorful fireworks spreading across the sky is incredibly photogenic, offering a special view found only at this event. Enjoy the artistry of light and sound while feeling the refreshing summer sea breeze.
The event is scheduled for July 26, 2026. The fireworks display will take place from 20:00 to 20:40. Please note that the event may be canceled or changed due to weather or rain, so please check the official website for the latest updates on the day.
The venue is Kaio Maru Park in Imizu City, Toyama Prefecture. For access, using the Manyo Line is the most convenient option. The venue is located approximately a 10-minute walk from Kaio Maru Station. The area features well-maintained promenades, allowing you to enjoy the view within an open, refreshing seaside atmosphere.
As the event is held in an open seaside area, temperatures may drop at night. Since large crowds are expected, preparing in advance is important for smooth movement and viewing. Considering a paid reserved seat can ensure a more comfortable and guaranteed view of the powerful display.
Since this is a nighttime event by the sea, we recommend bringing a light jacket or clothing that allows you to adjust your temperature. We also suggest wearing comfortable walking shoes to navigate the crowds and the venue area.
