45°N Summer Festival Fireworks Venue (北緯45度夏まつり花火会場)

Flow of the course

About this spot

These are the fireworks that close out the 45th 45°N Summer Festival, held on Saturday, August 1, 2026. The number of shells launched hasn't been announced, but the sight of fireworks filling the night sky over this small town in Hokkaido's northernmost area has an impact quite different from a fireworks show in the city. With no tall buildings around, you can watch the fireworks with an unobstructed view — a charm unique to this town. Enjoy the close of summer with your family under the wide northern sky.

Tips

The event may be canceled or postponed in bad weather, so check the town's announcement on the day to confirm whether it's going ahead. Temperatures tend to drop at night, so don't forget something to wear over your clothes. There are few streetlights around the venue, so use a light to watch your step on the way back.

Best time to visit

Plan around the event time of 19:00-20:00. Secure a good viewing spot before it begins
