Tajimi's City Founding Anniversary Fireworks lights the Toki River between the Toto and Kunaga bridges on October 18, 2026, from 6:30 p.m. — a commemoration of the Gifu pottery town's incorporation — with paid seating along the banks, food stalls, and arranged parking. The river-margin venue sits steps from the city center, tying the show to an easy dinner-and-fireworks evening.
Cities across Japan mark the anniversaries of their incorporation quietly; Tajimi, in southeast Gifu, marks its city-status anniversary with fireworks over the river. On October 18, 2026, launches begin 6:30 p.m. from the Toki River riverbed between the Toto and Kunaga bridges, a corridor of water reflecting the show along its whole length. The executive committee, housed in the city hall's industry-and-tourism division, sells paid seating for the central banks, while food stalls line the approaches and parking is arranged in the district. The city's official page publishes the year's program notes. Mid-autumn river nights in the Tajimi basin run cold — plan the wardrobe accordingly. The 6:30 p.m. start suits the mid-autumn darkness that settles early over the basin.
