Summary

About 5,000 shells rise over the Hayase River banks in Tono City, Iwate Prefecture, on Saturday, August 15, 2026, 19:00–20:30, for the 33rd Tono Noryo Fireworks Festival. The open riverbank keeps sightlines clear, and the basin terrain carries the sound in a way only Tono's geography allows. Free parking for 500 cars opens from 4 to 10 p.m. (temporary lot), the venue is a ten-minute walk from JR Tono Station, about ten minutes by car from the Tono IC on the Kamaishi Expressway, and the display is postponed in case of bad weather.

Overview

The 33rd Tono Noryo Fireworks Festival turns the Hayase River banks into a launch stage on Saturday, August 15, 2026, 19:00–20:30. Around 5,000 shells spread across the hour and a half, and the unobstructed riverbank lets you watch them fill the whole sky. Set in a basin, Tono sends the bursts echoing across the valley floor — a sound experience in itself. JR Tono Station is a ten-minute walk from the venue, and drivers arrive in about ten minutes from the Tono IC on the Kamaishi Expressway. The temporary parking lot (500 spaces, free) opens 16:00–22:00, and the display is postponed in case of bad weather. No food stalls are planned, so bring any food and drinks you will need.

Info for International Visitors

Best arrival time

Aim to arrive 30–45 minutes before the start. The open riverbank offers broad viewing space, but prime spots fill early. The temporary lot (500 spaces, free) opens at 4 p.m., so a late-afternoon arrival works for drivers.

With kids

The flat riverbank is easy going for families. Temperatures drop after dark, so bring a layer, and keep children in sight as crowds build.

Photography tips

With few obstructions, the bursts fill the frame naturally. The riverside ground is dark underfoot — fix tripods firmly and shoot where you won't block others.

Payment

Viewing is free. No food stalls are planned, so bring your own food and drinks. Parking is free for 500 cars (temporary lot, 16:00–22:00).
