Secure Your Spot and Dine on the Lakeside - Wait for the Show While Admiring Mount Fuji's Sunset
About this spot
As evening approaches, the lakeside of Funatsuhama, tonight's fireworks venue, gradually fills with spectators. Once you've secured your spot, spread out your packed dinner or food from nearby food stalls and enjoy the relaxed time before the show begins. The sunset sinking beyond Mount Fuji's ridgeline viewed from this special reserved-area seat is a bonus treat before the fireworks. As the sky shifts from orange to indigo, anticipation in the venue builds. Temperatures begin to drop on the mountain lake in the evening, so have a light jacket or wrap ready for comfort.
Fireworks details
Name: 河口湖湖上祭花火大会
Date & time: 8/5 (Wed) 19:45–20:40
Venue: 富士河口湖町・河口湖畔船津浜
Shells: approx. 10,000
2026年8月5日(水)19時45分から20時40分にかけて、河口湖畔船津浜を会場に約10,000発が打ち上げられます。最大の特徴は、富士山のシルエットを背景にした夜空へ開く花火と、静かな湖面に映し出される逆さ花火が同時に楽しめることです。山あいの湖は音の反響も大きく、花火の爆音が体に響く迫力も格別。約55分にわたる大会は、スターマインや尺玉など多彩なプログラムで構成され、フィナーレの連発は湖面と夜空を一面に染め上げます。富士山と湖と花火が揃う、河口湖ならではの夏の絶景です。
Tips
荒天時の開催可否は富士河口湖町観光連盟などの公式情報で当日必ず確認を。終了後は周辺道路と河口湖駅が大変混雑するため、時間差での帰宅がおすすめです。湖畔から駅まで徒歩の場合は足元が暗い区間があるため、ライトを活用してください。帰りの富士急行線の時刻も事前に確認しておきましょう。

Roads and parking near the fireworks venue get congested early on festival day. Public transportation (Fujikyuko Line buses, shuttle buses from Kawaguchiko Station, etc.) is convenient. Restrooms are set up around the venue but lines form quickly, so use them early. Festival food stalls sell out fast, so bring beverages and light snacks in advance for peace of mind.
Best time to visit
Approximately 2 hours 30 minutes. Securing a spot by 5 p.m. allows you to enjoy the sunset to fireworks with ample leisure.
