Product Info
RED×BLUE SPARKLE GATE (Kita City Fireworks Festival) is a one-night-only entertainment show held on the Arakawa riverbed in the Akabane area of Kita City, Tokyo, featuring a fusion of music, light, and fireworks.
Last year, many guests praised the fireworks entertainment, including the performance where fireworks were synchronized with music.
However, as we received feedback that access to the venue and entry routes were difficult to understand, this year we have prepared designated viewing seats for international tourists at the Akabane venue, which is the more accessible main venue.
It is accessible on foot from Akabane-Iwabuchi Station on the Tokyo Metro Namboku Line and Saitama Railway Line, as well as from JR Kita-Akabane Station and JR Akabane Station.
To ensure that guests from overseas and English-speaking residents in Japan can enjoy the event with peace of mind, we have prepared designated seating and some guidance in English.
The viewing area allows you to enjoy the fireworks in comfort from your designated seat while feeling the power and excitement of the main venue up close. There is no need to save a spot.
