Centered on the Fukuoka Higashi Ward Fireworks Festival held on Saturday, April 18, 2026, this full-day course lets you enjoy the seaside area of Fukuoka City's Higashi Ward from early afternoon onward.

Next, unwind and feel the sea breeze at Island City Central Park, then in the evening pick up a takeout dinner around Kashii Station before heading to Kashiihama. Once the sun sets, secure a spot at the Mishima Green Bay Walk venue and enjoy about 7,000 fireworks launched up close into the night sky over Hakata Bay. This is the definitive plan for Higashi Ward, Fukuoka, letting you savor the spring seaside, a historic forest, and spectacular fireworks all in one day.
