Flow of the course

About this spot

The Umi no Eki Toromu (海の駅とろむ), standing along the coast of Muroto City, is the launch venue for the 2026 Muroto Fireworks Festival. The open plaza facing the Pacific Ocean and the space along the coastline serve as viewing areas, offering a blessed location where you can enjoy the fireworks bursting from the sea in front with nothing obstructing the view. In the evening, you can also see a large sunset sinking into the horizon from this premium seat, and the time from sunset to the start of fireworks never becomes dull. The food stalls and refreshment stands lined up in the evening venue also enhance the festive summer fair atmosphere before the fireworks.

Tips

On fireworks day, many visitors arrive, so securing a spot early is essential. Arriving between 4:30 PM and 5 PM allows you to claim a seat with relative ease. Check the locations of restrooms early. Food and drinks from stalls are limited in quantity, so it is recommended to bring items purchased at the roadside station as a supplement.

Best time to visit

Approximately 3 hours 15 minutes required. The sunset glow and color change of the sea before and after dusk are unique pleasures of this location.
