Stroll through Omagari fireworks town's shopping street, refuel with local gourmet

About this spot

The central shopping street of Daisen City, located just a short walk from JR Omagari Station. Omagari, known as a fireworks master's town, is a place where fireworks culture breathes throughout the year. The shopping street is lined with local Japanese confectionery shops and groceries, offering simple, authentic Akita-style shopping experiences. On the day of the fireworks festival, the shopping street is relatively leisurely during the day, making it the perfect time to experience the local atmosphere before the evening rush. Stock up on local rice, pickles, and sweets as snacks before the display or as portable food for the venue in the evening—they'll prove invaluable. Experience the depth of history between the place name "Omagari" and fireworks, and touch lightly on the daily life of this town.

Tips

荒天時の開催可否は大仙市・大会公式サイトの発表を必ず確認してください。終了後はJR大曲駅周辺が大変混雑します。帰りの電車・バスの時刻を事前に調べ、混雑のピークを少しずらして帰宅するのがおすすめです。会場は4月下旬でも夜間は非常に冷えるため、厚手の防寒着は必携。足元が暗いエリアもあるので小型ライトがあると安心です。

Tips

About 3-5 minutes walk from the east exit of JR Omagari Station. On the day of the fireworks festival, visitors increase rapidly after evening, so it's wise to complete shopping during the day. Food and beverages can be selected more leisurely at the shopping street than at venues near the site. Coin lockers are available at Omagari Station, but tend to fill up early on fireworks day, so use them right after arrival.

Best time to visit

Takes approximately 1 hour. The daytime business hours allow for relaxed shopping.
