Nagaoka Fireworks, originating in 1879, is not only one of Japan's "Three Great Fireworks Festivals," but also a summer extravaganza embodying historical revival and the desire for peace.

To allow you to experience this grand event in an elegant and relaxed way, we are offering a special limited-time private bus tour! Departing from downtown Tokyo, the entire journey is by comfortable bus, completely eliminating the hassle of planning your own public transportation and the crowds of late-night trains. The tour also includes highly sought-after "official exclusive viewing seats," allowing you to enjoy a superb view of the top-tier fireworks without having to queue for hours under the scorching sun. Even with just one day off, you can join us for this miraculous night and easily unlock the ultimate romance of a Japanese summer night!
Phoenix Fireworks: An overwhelmingly wide and spectacular display: Utilizing the vast hinterland of the Shinano River, a continuous 2-kilometer stretch of ultra-wide star-mine fireworks is launched simultaneously, creating an ultimate and magnificent spectacle that can only be witnessed at Phoenix Fireworks.
The traditional "No. 30 Firework Shell": Also known as "No. 30 Jewel", it is the ultimate culmination of the unwavering dedication and top-notch skills of Nagaoka fireworks artisans.
Transforming the entire city into the ultimate summer night fantasy—this is more than just fireworks; it's a miraculous night illuminating the entire city. Multiple giant fireworks explode simultaneously above the myriad lights of the city, their vibrant colors reflecting the golden sparks stretching for kilometers below, transforming the night sky into a dazzling galaxy. This continuous, epic, and breathtaking spectacle is the true reason why the Nagaoka fireworks are hailed as a "must-see in a lifetime."
No queuing, no need to reserve a spot, enjoy a golden view. As the sky magically transforms from azure to deep blue, Nagaoka's grand spectacle officially begins. You'll have exclusive group viewing seats, eliminating the need to queue for hours under the scorching sun. You can sit comfortably, enjoying the summer night breeze, and leisurely watch the fireworks unfold and bloom before your eyes, layer by layer. This dignified and relaxed viewing experience is the best way to enjoy Japan's premier summer night.
Experience the sensory spectacle firsthand. Fireworks are not just for watching; they are a sensory feast that cleanses the soul. Seated in our specially designed seats, you can enjoy an unobstructed view of the light and shadow wonder stretching for kilometers, just like in the picture. As golden rain cascades down before your eyes like a waterfall, the breathtaking sonic booms and dazzling lights will envelop you, creating an unforgettable and brilliant summer memory.
Our seats were located in the chair seating area of Venue B (Left Bank). Situated in a prime viewing area next to the Ote Bridge, we could experience the ultimate immersive feeling of fireworks exploding overhead up close.
One seat per person, comfortable viewing: We've arranged a dedicated folding single chair provided by the Nagaoka Fireworks Festival. Unlike regular unreserved seating, you won't need to sit on the ground or bring your own picnic mat; you can comfortably gaze at the entire night sky from your seat. ※Images on this page are for reference only.
