Itinerary

After meeting your tour conductor, travel to Tsuchiura in Ibaraki Prefecture.
You will attend the 95th Tsuchiura All Japan Fireworks Competition, one of Japan's most prestigious and long-running fireworks events. You will watch the event from a paid reserved seating area included with the tour. Depending on the option selected, seating will be either in a General Reserved Seating Area or a Group Reserved Seating Area.
The fireworks are scheduled to take place from approximately 17:30 to 20:00, while your stay at the venue is planned from approximately 15:00 to 22:00. The extended schedule allows time for traffic controls, security measures, and the large crowds that gather for this nationally recognized event.
Please note that the walk from the parking area to the viewing section may take approximately 15 to 30 minutes.
Due to the popularity of the competition, waiting time before the fireworks and traffic congestion after the event should be expected.
