Koshigaya Fireworks Festival Venue (Kasai Yosui Riverbank)

Flow of the course

About this spot

The Kasai Yosui riverbank, the viewing venue for the Koshigaya Fireworks Festival, is an open space along a waterway flowing through the city, and its biggest appeal is how close you feel to the fireworks as they launch. Looking up at the fireworks from the flat riverbank, they fill a large part of your view, with the power of the light and sound felt directly in your body. A viewing area spreads out around Chuo Civic Hall, with an atmosphere where families can relax and enjoy the show on leisure sheets. This festival, which colors Saitama's summer nights, has long been loved by local residents, making for a special time to create summer memories along with the light of the fireworks reflected on the river's surface.

Tips

Be sure to check the official announcement for the event time (the exact time is not yet finalized and may be subject to change). Also check the official festival information for whether it will proceed in bad weather. Since the area around Koshigaya Station gets crowded after the show ends, it's recommended to head to the station a bit later, staggered from the crowd. Some spots are dark underfoot, so make use of your smartphone's flashlight.

Best time to visit

Timed to the event's start; arrive at your viewing spot 20-30 minutes before it begins.
