Festival Food at Stalls in the Pedestrian Zone; Dinner Before the Fireworks and Securing Your Spot

About this spot

As evening approaches, food stalls line the Kancho Street pedestrian zone, and the Towada City Summer Festival reaches its peak of excitement. Enjoy classic festival foods like yakisoba, takoyaki, and shaved ice while savoring the moments before the fireworks begin. As dusk falls and lantern lights start to glow beneath the zelkova trees, the festive atmosphere reaches a special high. Having dinner here and finishing your meal before heading to the viewing area on the west side of the athletics track allows you to enjoy the fireworks calmly during the show. The joy of exploring stalls and choosing your favorites is uniquely part of the summer festival experience.

十和田市夏まつり花火大会は、陸上競技場西側の観覧席と官庁街通り歩行者天国地内が会場となる、十和田市の夏の一大イベントです。約2,500発のスターマインや尺玉が次々と夜空を彩り、整然としたケヤキ並木の上空に大輪の花が開く光景は、並木道の街ならではの美しさです。音と光が広い空の下に広がるスケール感は、家族みんなで体感する価値があります。屋台のにぎわいの余韻のまま観覧エリアへ移り、1日の締めくくりにふさわしいフィナーレを迎えましょう。夜風に吹かれながら家族で並んで見上げる花火の時間は、この夏の忘れられない思い出になります。

Tips

開演前に観覧席や歩行者天国地内で場所を確保しておくとゆっくり観覧できます。荒天時の開催可否は十和田市の公式発表で確認してください。終了後は会場周辺の道路や駐車場が大変混雑するため、時間に余裕を持って帰路につくか、混雑が落ち着いてから移動するのがおすすめです。足元が暗い場所もあるため、小さなライトがあると安心です。

Tips

Starting about an hour before the fireworks begin, the viewing area starts to fill up, so after eating, it's recommended to move early to secure a spot. Prepare small change for stall purchases to speed things up. Use restrooms before joining the crowds.

Best time to visit

Approximately 2 hours required. The twilight hours when the lantern lights reflect off the zelkova trees are the liveliest.
