The evening before, on July 31, the Iwaki Odori Onahama dance event warms up the port town. Izumi Station is about 15 minutes away by bus.
Overview
The 71st Iwaki Fireworks Display is held on August 1, 2026 at Aqua Marine Park on Piers 1 and 2 of Onahama Port, Fukushima, launching 12,000 shells across the two hours from 19:00 to 21:00 under the theme 'Toward a Shining Future — 60 Years Linked by Light'. The venue is about 15 minutes by bus from JR Izumi Station, or roughly 20 minutes by car from the Iwaki-Yumoto IC on the Joban Expressway, with both free and paid parking available. Paid seats can be reserved, and food stalls gather around the park. With a two-hour program, plan a relaxed exit after the finale — and note that the Iwaki Odori Onahama dance event fills the port town the previous evening, July 31.
