Where can I see the Katsushika Fireworks Festival for free?

If you want to get a good seat in front of the fireworks, it’s worth getting a ticket. But there will be some free areas to sit on either side of the paid seating — if you get there early enough.

How to get there

The fireworks will take place at the Shibamata Baseball Ground near the Edogawa River — just 10 minutes from Keisei Shibamata Station.

Organizers may cancel events, alter schedules, or change admission requirements without notice. Always check official sites before heading to an event.
