Take a seat along the Miyakawa River in Ise for one of the three biggest fireworks festivals in Japan.
What happens?
Around 7,000 fireworks will be launched and pyrotechnicians from across the country attend to show off their skills. This is a competition, so you’ll be sure to see their best efforts!
Schedule 2025
The fireworks will shoot off from 7:20 p.m. until 9 p.m. While the fireworks will go ahead if it rains, if the weather turns stormy then the fireworks will be postponed to September 6 from 6:30 p.m. (and then September 7).
Tickets and seating
You will need a ticket to enter some areas by the river. Unreserved seats start from ¥3,000 and can be bought on the official website from mid-May.
How to get there
There will be a shuttle bus from Ise-shi Station. It takes around 10 minutes.
Organizers may cancel events, alter schedules, or change admission requirements without notice. Always check official sites before heading to an event.
