Centered on the 78th Kita Nippon Shimbun Summer Fireworks Festival (Toyama Venue) held on Saturday, August 1, 2026, this course lets you enjoy central Toyama City over the course of a day. At midday, enjoy lunch and a stroll through the downtown Sogawa district, then in the afternoon experience the history of the castle town at Toyama Castle Park. In the evening, stroll through a beautiful park along the canal for a break, then move to the Jinzu River riverbed near the fireworks venue to have dinner while securing a viewing spot. At 7:40 pm, about 3,000 fireworks shells launch one after another, filling the surface of the Jinzu River, with large fireworks taking advantage of the river's open width to color the night sky. A definitive plan for summer in Toyama, packed full of city strolling, nature, and spectacular fireworks.
