Grab Dinner at Food Stalls and Restaurants Around the Venue and Secure Your Viewing Spot
About this spot
As evening approaches on the night of the fireworks festival, food stalls line the area around the Ougi-ga-hama venue, creating the unique bustle of a festival. Exploring for stalls serving local flavors such as mehariushi (めはり寿司—pressed sushi wrapped in pickled mustard leaf) and saury sushi—local Kishu specialties—is part of the fun. Purchasing food to takeout and spreading it on your leisure sheet becomes an evening meal with a cool sea breeze. As the sun sets, the venue fills with spectators, so it's important to spread out your leisure sheet and secure your viewing spot while also having your meal. From the evening onward, the sea breeze grows chilly at Ougi-ga-hama in October, so prepare a light jacket at this time.
Fireworks details
Name: 田辺花火大会
Date & time: 10/3 (Sat) 20:00–20:20
Venue: 田辺市・扇ヶ浜
Shells: approx. 3,500
田辺花火大会は、田辺湾に面した扇ヶ浜を会場に開催される、和歌山県南部を代表する花火大会です。2026年は10月3日(土)20時から20時20分まで、約3,500発が打ち上がります。海上から打ち上げられる花火は遮るものがなく、砂浜から正面に大きく見えるのが扇ヶ浜ならではの醍醐味。秋の澄んだ夜空と穏やかな海面に映る光のコントラストは、夏とは一味違う落ち着いた美しさがあります。紀伊半島の自然に包まれた田辺の夜に打ち上がる大輪の花火は、1日かけて訪れる価値のある光景です。
Tips
荒天時の開催可否は田辺市や大会主催者の公式発表で必ず確認してください。終了後はJR紀伊田辺駅周辺が混雑するため、フィナーレ後は砂浜で少し余韻を楽しんでから移動する時間差帰宅がおすすめです。足元が暗くなるのでライトを用意しておきましょう。
Tips
Convenience stores and shops around the venue tend to sell out after evening, so secure drinks early. Position your sheet with awareness of where the fireworks will launch, placing it on the sand facing the sea. Restrooms become crowded, so plan to use them with time to spare before the show begins.
Best time to visit
Approximately 2 hours required. Enjoy a leisurely meal while gazing at the sea at dusk.
