Summary

Kamogawa Citizens' Fireworks Festival lights up Maehara-Yokosuka Beach in Chiba Prefecture on July 29, 2026, from 19:30 to 20:10. About 3,000 shells rise over a shore picked among Japan's 100 Best Beaches, where the arc-shaped Kaihin Promenade allows viewing from anywhere along the sand — just five minutes on foot from Awa-Kamogawa Station.

Overview

Set on a gently curving, kilometer-long stretch of sand chosen among Japan's 100 Best Beaches, the show sends up some 3,000 fireworks, large shells opening against the backdrop of the sea. The 2025 edition drew around 45,000 visitors. The Kaihin Promenade footpath follows the whole shoreline, so any spot on the beach works. The venue is a five-minute walk from Awa-Kamogawa Station, making the train the sensible way in; nearby parking capacity and fees remain undetermined, and traffic restrictions apply around the promenade on the night.

Info for International Visitors

Best arrival time

Aim to arrive about an hour before the start. Space on the sand fills up over time and the walking route from Awa-Kamogawa Station gets busy. Parking numbers and fees are still undetermined, so coming on foot from the station, five minutes away, is the reliable option.

Best viewing spots

The Kaihin Promenade footpath follows the kilometer-long arc of the shoreline, and the show can be watched from anywhere along the beach. Large shells open against the backdrop of the sea, so secure a seaside vantage early.

With kids

The venue is an ocean-facing beach, so keep children well back from the waterline and within sight. Crowds thicken after dusk and it is easy to get separated — agree on a meeting point beforehand.

Photography tips

Phone and camera photos are fine, but be considerate with tripods on the crowded beach. When shooting shells opening against the sea, keeping the glimmering waterline in the lower frame captures the reflections too.

Payment

There is no paid seating. Food stalls line the venue and generally take cash, so carry extra small bills and coins.
