Approximately 8,000 fireworks launched from the sea of Yaizu Port into the autumn night sky—a spectacular display

About this spot

The Yaizu Marine Fireworks Festival is held at Jonokoshi Wharf (城之腰埠頭) in Yaizu Port Shinko from 6:30 PM to 8 PM on Saturday, October 24. Approximately 8,000 fireworks launched from the sea facing Suruga Bay shine brilliantly in the clear autumn night sky and bloom in grand displays one after another, reflecting light on the port's water surface. The impressive fireworks spreading just above the horizon from a sea launch and the thunderous sound reverberating in the quiet night sea create a unique fireworks experience characteristic of a port town. The autumn sky in October has higher transparency than summer, and the colorful fireworks stand out with particular clarity. The moment when the finale's rapid bursts light up the night sky of Yaizu Port is the climax of this full day.

Tips

Be sure to confirm whether the festival will be held in case of bad weather through the official announcement by Yaizu City. After the event ends, roads and public transportation around the venue become very congested. Rather than leaving immediately after the finale, enjoy the afterglow at the wharf for a while before departing at a staggered time to avoid congestion. Ensure thorough preparation for the cold as temperatures are low on October nights after the event ends.

Best time to visit

From 6:30 PM to 8 PM during the event hours. Be sure to secure your viewing spot 30 minutes before the start.
