The Tachikawa Showa Kinen Park Fireworks Festival will see 5,000 fireworks launched, making it a medium-sized festival by Tokyo standards.
What happens?
Just under 400,000 people attend this annual fireworks festival. Expect lots of yukata and picnic baskets — it’s a nice idea to bring dinner and make an evening of it.
This year, entrance to the park is entirely free all day. You’ll get a better viewing spot the earlier you enter. It gets crowded around 5 p.m. There will also be paid seating available.
Schedule
The event is scheduled to proceed in light rain, but will be canceled in case of severe weather.
How to get there
The best spot to watch is the open field called Minna no Harappa in Showa Kinen Memorial Park. The nearest station is Nishi-Tachikawa or Tachikawa Station on the JR Line.
Organizers may cancel events, alter schedules, or change admission requirements without notice. Always check official sites before heading to an event.- 428 m from Nishi-Tachikawa Station Ōme Line (JC51)
