2026 Kakizaki Cool-of-Evening Fireworks Display: A Full-Day Course

This full-day course centers on the Kakizaki Cool-of-Evening Fireworks Display, held from 19:30 on Tuesday, August 11, 2026 (a national holiday) at Kakizaki Central Beach in Joetsu City, Niigata Prefecture. During the day, walk along the shoreline at Kakizaki Central Beach, then get up close with Sea of Japan creatures at Joetsu City Aquarium Umigatari. In the afternoon, stroll the retro streets in front of Naoetsu Station and look for souvenirs at Roadside Station Yoshikawa Toji no Sato. In the evening, head back to the beach area to cool off and grab a bite, then watch fireworks color the night sky once it gets dark. Packed with encounters with sea creatures and seaside fireworks, this is the ultimate summer plan for Joetsu.
