Watch approximately 10,000 fireworks from the Tone River bank, illuminating Suigo's night sky

About this spot

The Suigo Omigawa Fireworks Festival is a grand fireworks display of approximately 10,000 fireworks held on the Tone River bank in Katori City, Chiba Prefecture. Because the vast width of the Tone River serves as the stage, the fireworks' scale and openness are extraordinary, with bands of light reflected on the water surface creating an even more enchanting scene in Suigo's night. Thanks to the flat terrain characteristic of the Suigo region, there are few obstructions around the area, allowing the fireworks to appear impressively large from many points along the riverbank. The finale with approximately 10,000 fireworks launching in succession—with sound and light vibrating the air along the river—becomes a memory etched deeply into the experience of a summer night. Fireworks enjoyed while enveloped in Suigo's nature and river breeze will become an unforgettable evening for the whole family.

Tips

The event is typically scheduled for nighttime, but please confirm the 2026 details in advance with official festival information. Also check official announcements regarding possible cancellations due to bad weather. After the festival ends, surrounding roads and return traffic become congested, so plan your departure with time to spare. The riverbank has areas with limited lighting, so bringing a flashlight is recommended for safety.

Best time to visit

Arrive at your viewing location by 7 PM before the start time. A spot where you can see the river surface allows you to enjoy the fireworks' reflections as well.
