Schedule / Dates

The 2026 Adachi Fireworks Festival will be held on aturday, May 30.
The times are 19:20 to 20:20.

Viewing Spots

The fireworks are launched from the Arakawa Riverbed. The viewing areas are generally divided into paid and free sections. Paid seats offer the best center view and eliminate the need for early spot reserving.
Here are some recommended free areas:

Arakawa Riverbed (Umejima side)

Although the Kita-Senju side is the main venue, the Umejima side (opposite bank) is recommended because it is generally less crowded and offers wider viewing space. To fully experience the wide starmines, secure a spot facing the launch site directly. The area near Gate 20 on the Umejima side of the riverbed (near the baseball field) is often available later and allows for relaxed viewing.

Nearby Hills and Bridges

You can view the fireworks from bridges over the Arakawa River or surrounding hills, but the intensity will be reduced due to the distance. However, this is recommended for those who want to avoid the main crowd or reserve a spot later.

Highlights / Attractions

This fireworks festival has four main attractions:

1. Overwhelming Speed and Density in One Hour

Adachi Fireworks launches its 13,000 shots in a concentrated one-hour program, making it one of the most intense and fast-paced shows. The dense, high-speed program is the hallmark of Adachi Fireworks.

2. Small Shells, Big Impact (Closer is Better!)

Due to regulations, the festival is limited to smaller 4.8inch shell shells. However, this allows viewing from a much closer distance than festivals with larger shells. As the saying goes among fans, "**Closer is Justice**." The fireworks feel huge, bursting overhead and filling your field of view, creating an exhilarating experience. The show features effective use of both vertical and horizontal space.

3. Hokuriku Kako's Signature Shimmering Effects

Hokuriku Kako (from Ishikawa Prefecture) is the pyrotechnician. A feature of their fireworks is the shimmering effect, known as "KiraKira" (golden glitter), which pulses with a gorgeous golden light. This effect is used extensively in the finale. They are also known for unique, creative designs, including timed-burst fireworks that change colors rapidly and shapes like stylized shrimp tempura.

4. Grand Finale to Elgar's "Pomp and Circumstance"

The finale is a famous program set to Elgar's Pomp and Circumstance, utilizing the full width of the Arakawa River for a spectacular performance. The climactic final burst of golden fireworks (*Nishiki Kamuro*) fills the sky, creating a breathtaking moment. After the finale, time is set aside for the audience to shout "Thank you!" and wave cell phone lights to express appreciation to the pyrotechnicians, creating a memorable collective experience.
