Summary

The fireworks finale of the Echigo Kamogawa Summer Festival, held on August 14 on the Kamogawa riverbed in Kamo, Niigata. About 1,000 shells in 30 minutes from 8:30 pm, with fountain fireworks rigged on a mid-river islet and a grand Niagara sweeping across the town bridge at the close.

Overview

The riverside program also includes lantern floating and a grand bon dance in the same grounds. Access is by train — Kamo Station is a ten-minute walk — as there is no parking at the venue. Arrive about an hour early for a good riverside spot.

Info for International Visitors

Best arrival time

Aim to arrive about an hour before the show; riverside walkways get busy. With no parking available, plan to come by train — it is a ten-minute walk from Kamo Station.

Best viewing spots

The grand Niagara spreads across the bridge over the Kamo River, so a riverside position with the bridge in view works best. The midstream fountain fireworks are best seen from close to the water.

With kids

Riverside viewing means keeping children away from the water's edge. With the bon dance drawing crowds as well, set a meeting point in advance.

Photography tips

Photography is free; be considerate with tripods in crowded areas. The grand Niagara spreads across the bridge, so a composition that includes the bridge captures it whole.

Payment

There are no paid seats or food stalls — bring food and a leisure sheet with you. Viewing is free.
