2026 Kanazawa Matsuri Fireworks Festival: A Full-Day Course
Centered on the Kanazawa Matsuri Fireworks Festival (金沢まつり花火大会), held on Saturday, August 22, 2026, this full-day course lets you enjoy the seaside of Kanazawa Ward, Yokohama, from midday onward. In the afternoon, enjoy the aquarium and spectacular sea views at Hakkeijima Sea Paradise (八景島シーパラダイス), and in the evening fill up on food on the sandy beach of Umi no Koen (海の公園) while bathing in the sea breeze. Once it gets dark, spread out a leisure sheet in the viewing area of the same Umi no Koen and look up at about 3,500 fireworks across Tokyo Bay. The wide sandy beach, beloved as a swimming spot, and the fireworks reflected on the surface of Tokyo Bay create scenery unique to summer in Kanazawa Ward. This is a perfect plan to wrap up summer vacation, letting the whole family fully enjoy a day at the seaside.
