Secret Spots

As the area around the venue will be extremely crowded on the day of the fireworks festival, we also recommend some "secret spots" (穴場スポット) where you can enjoy the fireworks leisurely from a slightly more distant location.

• Inage Kaihin Park (稲毛海浜公園): Although slightly distant from the venue, it is known for its beautiful views of the offshore fireworks. The park is also equipped with parking and restrooms, allowing for a comfortable experience.
• Kemigawa-no-Hama (検見川の浜): Located to the west of Makuhari-no-Hama (幕張の浜), Kemigawa-no-Hama is another spot where you can view the fireworks in a relatively relaxed atmosphere. You can enjoy the offshore fireworks, in particular, in this spacious area.
• AEON Mall Makuhari New City (イオンモール幕張新都心) (Rooftop): As a commercial facility, there are fewer concerns about restrooms and dining, making it recommended for those with small children. While it may be possible to view fireworks from the rooftop, please check the congestion status and viewing conditions in advance.
• Mr.MAX Shin-Narashino Store (Mr.MAX新習志野店) (Rooftop): This commercial facility is located directly in front of JR Shin-Narashino Station (JR新習志野駅), and its rooftop may be open to the public on the day of the fireworks festival. Although the fireworks will appear smaller due to the distance from the venue, it's a good option for those who want to avoid crowds and enjoy them at a leisurely pace.
• Akanehama Ryokuchi Park (茜浜緑地): This green space is located further west from the Makuhari (幕張) area. The fireworks will be a distant view, but it is recommended for those who want to avoid crowds and quietly watch the fireworks.
• Mihama Ohashi Bridge (美浜大橋): Although it is a short distance from the fireworks launch site, there is a possibility of an unobstructed view of the offshore fireworks.

Additionally, hotels in the surrounding area may offer special accommodation plans or dinner plans on the day of the fireworks festival. Enjoying the fireworks elegantly from a hotel can also be a special experience.
