Venue and Map
The Furusato Ryugu Festival Marine Fireworks takes place along the coast around the Hotaruika Museum in Namerikawa, Toyama Prefecture. The fireworks launched over Toyama Bay are reflected on the surface of the water, creating a magical scene. Numerous food stalls also line the area around the venue, adding to the festive atmosphere.
Access
The nearest station is Namerikawa Station on the Ainokaze Toyama Railway. From Namerikawa Station, it takes approximately 10 to 15 minutes on foot to reach the venue at the Hotaruika Museum.
The area around the venue and station is expected to be extremely crowded on the day of the fireworks. The roads leading to the station become especially congested after the fireworks end, so be sure to allow plenty of time.
Driving to the event is expected to be difficult due to traffic restrictions and a shortage of parking. Public transportation is strongly recommended. If you do come by car, consider arriving early or parking farther away and transferring to public transportation.
Trains home will be extremely crowded, and the last-train services are limited. Check the Ainokaze Toyama Railway timetable in advance and take care not to miss your train.
Reserved Seating and Tickets
As of July 2026, there has not yet been an official announcement regarding reserved seating for the 2026 Furusato Ryugu Festival Marine Fireworks. Reserved viewing areas may be available in some years, but please wait for an announcement on the official website regarding the specific types, prices, and sales period.
In the past, special viewing areas for sponsors have also been offered. The latest information will be announced periodically on the official website of the Namerikawa Tourism Association and other sources, so be sure to check before setting out.
Less-Crowded Viewing Spots
Here are 3 less-crowded spots where you can enjoy the Furusato Ryugu Festival Marine Fireworks at a more relaxed pace.
Around Namerikawa Fishing Port The area around Namerikawa Fishing Port, a short distance from the Hotaruika Museum, is a relatively uncrowded spot for watching the fireworks. In particular, the fireworks over the sea can be viewed unobstructed from along the port’s breakwater. However, watch your footing and enjoy the display from a safe location.
Tofukuji-no Natural Park Located slightly uphill from central Namerikawa, Tofukuji-no Natural Park is a hidden gem where you can enjoy the fireworks alongside a nighttime view from the high ground. Although it is some distance from the venue, you can take in a wide view of the entire fireworks display and enjoy a romantic atmosphere. It is convenient to access by car, but parking is limited.
Around Roadside Station Wave Park Namerikawa The area around Roadside Station Wave Park Namerikawa, located right next to the Hotaruika Museum, is also a relatively good viewing spot. From the roadside station’s parking lot and the nearby coastline, you can feel especially close to the fireworks. However, because it is near the museum, the area may become crowded, so arriving early to secure a spot is recommended.
