2026 Reihoku Jatto Festival Fireworks Display: A Full-Day Course
Centered on the Reihoku Jatto Festival Fireworks Display (苓北じゃっと祭花火大会), held on Saturday, July 18, 2026, this full-day course lets you enjoy the coast and nature of Reihoku Town, Amakusa District, from midday onward. In the afternoon, savor the spectacular view from Tomioka Castle Ruins (富岡城跡), where Reihoku Town's history and nature come alive, then stroll the surrounding area while taking in the beautiful coastline of Amakusa's west coast. In the evening, fill up on local seafood at the roadside station, and once it gets dark, head to the breakwater area beside the Tomioka Port Passenger Terminal (富岡港船客待合所). Enjoy an island-style summer night as fireworks color Reihoku's night sky and the sea surface. Accessible from mainland Kumamoto by ferry, Reihoku Town, blessed with a calm inland sea and rich nature, is the setting for a relaxed family fireworks getaway.
