Summary
The 127th Suigo Omigawa Hanabi Taikai takes place on the Tone River banks downstream of Omigawa-Ohashi bridge in Katori City, Chiba, on August 1, 2026, from 7:15 to 8:45 pm. A tradition since 1908 (Meiji 41), this year's edition enlarges its scale for the 20th anniversary of Katori City's merger, firing about 10,000 shells for a crowd of around 90,000. The program runs in four themed chapters of starmines, capped by super-large star mines spread across the river's wide open space. Omigawa Station is a 30-minute walk; free parking holds about 1,790 cars.
Overview
Few venues can match the breadth of the Tone River here: the super-large star mines open across the whole width of the water in front of the audience, which is why the show has reached its 127th edition. Each of the four chapters carries its own themed star-mine sequence, so the rhythm builds chapter by chapter. Access is a 30-minute walk from JR Omigawa Station or about 20 minutes by car from the Sawara-Katori IC on the Higashi-Kanto Expressway. Free parking (about 1,790 spaces, approximate) is split across several lots — the official website maps them out. Paid seating and food stalls are both available.
