2026 Minato Matsuri: Noshiro Fireworks - A Full-Day Enjoyment Course

Centered on the Minato Matsuri Noshiro Fireworks held on Saturday, July 18, 2026, this full-day course lets you enjoy the port town of Noshiro City, Akita Prefecture, from early afternoon onward. In the afternoon, take a neighborhood walk rooted in the local area around Noshiro Kogyo High School, a symbol of Noshiro known as a basketball town, and soak up the summer breeze at the lush Noshiro Park. In the evening, fill up on food in the area in front of Noshiro Station, then head to the Shimohama Wharf special venue while watching the sunset over the Sea of Japan. The awe-inspiring scale of about 15,000 fireworks launched into the night sky is known as one of Tohoku's premier seaside fireworks displays. This is the definitive plan for summer in Noshiro, woven together from the sea breeze of the Sea of Japan and grand fireworks.
