Viewing Approximately 10,000 Fireworks Launching from the Fuefuki River from the Riverbed

About this spot

The Isawa Onsen Fireworks Festival features approximately 10,000 fireworks launching from the Fuefuki River riverbed, making it one of Yamanashi Prefecture's premier fireworks festivals. With mountains surrounding the Kofu Basin as a backdrop, large fireworks bloom in the night sky while illuminating the Fuefuki River surface—a breathtaking sight. The beautiful reflection on the river surface unique to this riverside location and the exceptional resonance of the sound create an unforgettable experience. The fireworks launching on a hot spring resort night make for a fitting climax to the day. When the finale's rapid-fire bursts illuminate the night sky over the Kofu Basin, it becomes a summer memory etched in the hearts of the whole family.

Tips

Check the official festival information in advance for the event time (2026 timing to be confirmed). Also confirm in the official announcement whether the event will be held in case of bad weather. After the event ends, the area around Isawa Onsen Station becomes crowded, so it's recommended to head to the station with a time difference once the crowds settle. The riverbed after the event is dark, so having a smartphone light or small flashlight is reassuring.

Best time to visit

Plan to secure your viewing spot 20-30 minutes before the start time according to the event time.
