The 39th Uradomi Coast Genki Festival (Fireworks Festival) — fireworks spreading across the water surface are fantastic
On July 25, 2026, Uradome Beach in Iwami Town, Tottori, hosts the 39th Genki Festival and its fireworks show. From 8 p.m., 3,000 shells rise over 30 minutes from the sea off Uradome Coast, their reflections trailing across the water. The festival also brings events and food stalls, and the wide sandy beach lets spectators pick their own stretch and watch at ease. Free parking is available but congestion is expected, so the organizers encourage arriving by public transport.
A long-running summer fixture now in its 39th year, this festival fires 3,000 shells from the water in front of Uradome Beach between 8:00 and 8:30 p.m. The bursts and their reflection on the sea surface are the signature view, and with the beach itself serving as the viewing ground there is little to block the sightline — wherever you settle, the show reads clearly. Alongside the fireworks the day brings events and food stalls. From JR Iwami Station a free shuttle bus runs about 5 minutes to the town parking lot, a 1-minute walk from the beach; by car the Uradome interchange is about 3 minutes away. Free parking is provided, but with heavy congestion expected, planners should lean on the shuttle and other public transport.
