This full-day course lets you enjoy the Tosu area of Saga Prefecture from midday, centered around the Chikugogawa Fireworks Festival (Tosu Venue) (筑後川花火大会（鳥栖会場）) held on Wednesday, August 5, 2026. In the afternoon, enjoy shopping at Tosu Premium Outlets (鳥栖プレミアム・アウトレット), then stretch your legs in the plaza around Tosu Stadium (鳥栖スタジアム). In the evening, pick up local food at the shopping street in front of Tosu Station, then head to the Chikugo River (筑後川) riverbank to secure a viewing spot. At night, enjoy up close about 12,000 large shells blooming one after another against the backdrop of the Chikugo River's surface, in fireworks that rank among the largest in scale in all of Kyushu. From shopping to riverside fireworks, this is a family-friendly one-day plan for fully enjoying summer in Tosu.
