Minna no Harappa (みんなの原っぱ)

Flow of the course

About this spot

An approximately 180,000 square meter lawn in the center of Showa Kinen National Government Park, serving as the main viewing area for the Tachikawa Festival Fireworks Show. With nothing obstructing the view and wide-open sightlines, you can feel the power of fireworks bursting nearly overhead even from a position close to the launch site—a charm unique to this location. As spaces fill rapidly from evening onward on the fireworks show day, move to the meadow by the 5 PM hour and spread out your sheet. Vendor stalls line the park and surrounding areas to coincide with the fireworks show, so you can secure dinner here and spend time relaxing while waiting for the show to begin. The time as the sun sets and the sky's color changes is particularly special viewed from the wide meadow.

Tips

Approximately 10 minutes on foot from the Tachikawa entrance through the park. Park admission may be free on the day of the fireworks show, but please confirm details in advance through the official Tachikawa Festival announcement. When securing your spot, avoid spreading your sheet too large and remember to be considerate of those arriving later. The vendor area becomes crowded, so secure your meal early.

Best time to visit

Approximately 2 hours required. A time period to enjoy the sky's color changes from dusk until fireworks begin
