Secure a Viewing Spot in the Venue Area at the Mouth of the Sagami River
About this spot
At the mouth of the Sagami River sits Hiratsuka's fishing port, which is the venue area for the Shonan Hiratsuka Fireworks Festival. Its humorous name derives from the local sea deity—a uniquely Hiratsuka touch. In the evening, the harbor becomes picturesque with the silhouettes of fishing boats and the water's surface of the river mouth. As the lights of food stalls begin to glow, the festive atmosphere intensifies. Being close to the launch site means you can experience the power of the sound and light vividly and intimately—that's the appeal of this venue.
