About this spot
It's convenient to have dinner around Takaoka Station before heading to the fireworks venue at the Shogawa riverbank. The station area is full of restaurants serving Toyama specialties such as fresh seafood dishes from Toyama Bay and Toyama black ramen, allowing you to choose dinner to suit your family's preferences. As the fireworks festival draws crowds on the day of the event, try to enter a restaurant early or use takeout to eat near the venue. After your meal, move to the riverbank upstream from the Shogawa Takaoka Bridge to secure your viewing spot before the show begins.
Fireworks details
Name: 北日本新聞納涼花火大会 高岡会場
Date & time: 8/4 (Tue) 19:50–20:25
Venue: 高岡市・庄川高岡大橋上流河川敷
北日本新聞納涼花火大会の高岡会場は、庄川高岡大橋上流の河川敷から打ち上げが行われます。広々とした河川敷は遮るものが少なく、夜空いっぱいに開く花火を正面から楽しめる開放感が魅力です。川面に映る花火の反射も美しく、水辺ならではの情景が広がります。2026年8月4日(火)19時50分から20時25分までの35分間、高岡の夏の夜を彩る花火を家族揃って見上げましょう。フィナーレの大玉が夜空を照らす瞬間は、この1日の旅のクライマックスです。
Tips
開始前に余裕を持って観覧場所を確保しておきましょう。河川敷は地面が不整地の場合があるため、レジャーシートに加えて折りたたみイスがあると快適です。終了後は帰路が混雑するため、時間差での帰宅を検討してください。荒天時の開催可否は主催の北日本新聞社の公式発表で確認を。川沿いは足元が暗くなるため、ライトの用意をおすすめします。
Tips
The area around Takaoka Station sees increased crowds from late afternoon on the fireworks festival day. It's reassuring to finish dinner by around 6 p.m. and be ready to move. Move to the venue's riverbank by community bus or private car (note that nearby parking fills up quickly). Confirm your return transportation in advance.
Best time to visit
Allow approximately 2 hours. The station area in the evening is bustling with tourists and locals, creating a nice pre-fireworks atmosphere.
