Summary
The memorial service for the fallen Takeda warriors and the Nirasaki fireworks share one evening at the Kamunagawa riverside park in Yamanashi Prefecture on August 16, 2026, 19:30–20:30. After a solemn rite held in darkness, some 6,000 fireworks follow — grand star-mines and original set pieces synced to music — with paid seating that puts the launch point within arm's reach.
Overview
Deeply rooted in the Takeda clan's history, the program opens with the memorial service: the venue lights go down and the rite proceeds in solemn quiet before about 6,000 shells take over the night sky, drawing some 40,000 spectators. The venue is a 15-minute walk from Nirasaki Station, or 10 minutes by car from Nirasaki IC via Route 20; parking uses designated lots around the venue. Paid seats for a close-up view of the launch moment are best bought in advance, and riverside spots fill early — arrive about an hour before the start.
