The Toyama Shinko fireworks turn an industrial port into a stage: about 3,000 shells over the harbor with the full-rigged sail training ship Kaiwomaru and the illuminated Shinminato Bridge in frame, plus underwater starmines that bloom directly on the water. Small by national standards, but the setting is one of a kind.

Planning for 2027

The 2026 edition of Toyama Shinko Port Fireworks Festival was held on Sun, Jul 26. It is usually held on the last Sunday of July, which in 2027 would fall on Sun, Jul 25. The organiser sets each year's date itself, so treat that as a planning window and confirm it before you book anything fixed.

The 2027 date has not been published yet. This page is re-checked against the official source and updated as soon as it appears, so it is worth a look again before you book anything non-refundable.

Background

Held since the 1960s as the port area's summer festival, it embraced its backdrop — the preserved four-masted 'Lady of the Sea' moored at Kaiwomaru Park — as the show's identity.

Getting there

The venue is Kaiwomaru Park in Imizu: about 10 minutes on foot from Kaiwomaru Station on the Manyosen tram line (about 45 minutes from Takaoka), or 30 minutes by car from Toyama City.
