Summary

About 4,000 shells color the sea and sky off the East District beach in Maizuru, Kyoto, from 19:30 on July 26. The display takes its name from the local dialect word 'chatta' and includes 'Minna no Hanabi', funded by residents' donations, alongside star-mines. JR Higashi-Maizuru Station is a 15-minute walk, and parking nearby is limited, so public transport is recommended.

Overview

The Minato Maizuru Chatta Fireworks Festival launches about 4,000 shells over the East District shoreline on July 26, 19:30–20:10. Named after the Maizuru dialect word 'chatta', the show features 'Minna no Hanabi' — fireworks donated through resident fundraising — as well as star-mines and varied programs over the harbor. From JR Higashi-Maizuru Station the venue is a 15-minute walk, or about 15 minutes by car from Maizuru-Higashi IC. Traffic restrictions apply around the site on the day and parking is limited, so trains are the recommended way in. Arrive about an hour before the start: spots along the beach fill early, and the food stalls mostly take cash.

Info for International Visitors

Best arrival time

Arrive about an hour before the start — entrances and shoreline paths get crowded. Parking is limited, so plan on public transport.

With kids

Keep to beach spots set back from the water and keep children within sight. Crowds make it easy to get separated, so agree on a meeting point beforehand.

Photography tips

Phone and camera shots are fine, but be considerate with tripods in crowded areas. To catch the glow on the sea, keep the water in the lower frame.

Payment

Food stalls generally take cash, so carry plenty of small bills and coins. Parking near the venue is limited.
