Summary

The 'Jantokoi Uozu Matsuri', Uozu's summer festival in Toyama, reaches its 57th edition in 2026 and runs three days, with the sea fireworks on Saturday, August 8 from 19:40 for 40 minutes. Some 2,000 shells launch from Uozu Port, their reflections spreading across both sky and sea. Around the venue, the UNESCO-listed Tatemons Festival and the roughly 2,000-dancer 'Serikomi Choroku' procession add to the festival — the name 'Jantokoi' means 'please come plenty'.

Overview

Uozu's biggest summer event turns the whole town festival-minded for three days. The August 8 sea display counts among the prefecture's largest, with 2,000 shells from Uozu Port doubling themselves on the water. Through the festival days, the Tatemons of the UNESCO-listed Tatemons Festival and the mass Serikomi Choroku dance procession fill the town — traditions shaped by life beside the sea. The port is a 15-minute walk from Uozu Station on the Ainokaze Toyama Railway, or about 10 minutes by car from the Hokuriku Expressway Uozu IC. Free parking covers 400 cars at Ariso Dome. Paid grandstand seats are offered — see the official website — and food stalls are set up on site.

Info for International Visitors

Best arrival time

The display starts at 19:40, so secure a spot at the harbor by 18:45–19:00. The walking route from Uozu Station gets crowded. Parking is at Ariso Dome (400 free spaces), so allow time for the walk from there and arrive early.

Best viewing spots

Shells rise from the sea off Uozu Port; from the quay and the water's edge you can watch the reflections up close. The harbor opens out to sea, letting you take in the spread of light across sky and water alike.

With kids

The venue is on the harbor quay — keep children away from the water. The festival runs three days, so pick a time that suits young visitors. Agree on a meeting point in case you get separated.

Photography tips

Shoot from the water's edge and the reflections spread the fireworks across both sky and sea in one frame. The harbor is dark in places at night, so watch your footing as you move.

Payment

Viewing is free, with paid grandstand seats also available — check pricing on the official website. Food stalls are cash-based, so carry some coins.
