About this spot

The Hachijo Island Summer Fireworks Festival held on August 11, 2026 (Tuesday, National Holiday) marks the end of summer on the island. Approximately 650 fireworks launched from Sokodo Beach can be watched up close while hearing the sound of waves, standing out beautifully against the clear, quiet night sky unique to a remote island. Held right beside the port, this fireworks festival welcomes people who arrive at the island by ferry—fitting for the island's gateway. Enjoy the summer's finale with your family while feeling the night breeze.

Tips

In bad weather, the festival may be canceled or postponed, so confirm the day's status through the town's official announcement. After it ends, the beach area becomes crowded, so it's recommended to enjoy the finale's lingering atmosphere before moving with a time delay. The area is dark underfoot, so having a smartphone light is reassuring.

Best time to visit

Timed for the 20:11–20:50 viewing time. Arrive 20–30 minutes before the start to secure a good seat.
