2026 Ichikawa Citizens' Cool Evening Fireworks Festival: A Full-Day Course
This full-day course is built around the Ichikawa Citizens' Cool Evening Fireworks Festival (市川市民納涼花火大会), held on Saturday, August 1, 2026, and lets you enjoy the Ichikawa area of Chiba Prefecture (千葉県) from midday onward. In the afternoon, enjoy a shaded stroll through the lush green Satomi Park (里見公園) in Ichikawa City, then explore the historic grounds of Kobo-ji Temple (弘法寺) on Mama-san. In the evening, have an early dinner around Ichikawa Station (市川駅), then head to the Edo River (江戸川) riverbed venue to claim your spot. Once night falls, enjoy to the fullest the spectacular finale from the Osu (大洲) area riverbed, as around 14,000 dazzling fireworks shells color the night sky. Packed with a green park, a stroll through history, and a grand fireworks display over the Edo River, this is the definitive summer plan for Ichikawa.
