[2025 Nagaoka ] Travel Guide for Nagaoka Festival Grand Fireworks (Updated Jul)

The Nagaoka Grand Fireworks Festival, one of Japan's three major fireworks events, is held annually on August 2nd and 3rd in Nagaoka City, Niigata Prefecture. The festival originated as the "Nagaoka Reconstruction Festival" in 1946, commemorating the victims of the Nagaoka air raid on August 1, 1945, which devastated the city and claimed 1,488 lives. It serves as a memorial and a wish for recovery. Over the course of two days, approximately 20,000 fireworks are launched along the banks of the Shinano River. With a variety of fireworks on display, visitors are guaranteed a spectacular and satisfying experience. While the fireworks are breathtaking when viewed from the main venue, they can also be enjoyed from the Higashiyama Fureai Agricultural Park. This location offers a free and relaxed atmosphere to appreciate the beauty of the fireworks. Be sure to arrive early, as parking spaces fill up quickly! 📍 Location: Higashiyama Fureai Agricultural Park

#火火節 The 2024 Nagaoka Grand Fireworks Festival will be held on August 2-3. The Nagaoka Fireworks Festival is held to comfort the dead and pray for the dead. All tickets are reserved. It is difficult to get tickets without asking Japanese friends. Most of the tickets were bought online in June and are hard to get. Fireworks festivals have different themes, and the fireworks are rich in color and size. The most distinctive feature is that there is usually an extra-large firework. In fact, I failed to buy a ticket, but there are many small parks around that can be enjoyed. Time: 19:20-21:20 📍Address: Shinano River Riverside, downstream of Nagasei Bridge, Nagaoka City, Niigata Prefecture #trip #relax #Japan #JapanTravel #GlobalTravel

In order to restore the old town and make Nagaoka prosperous again, starting from the second year, the "Nagaoka Revival Festival", the predecessor of the Nagaoka Festival Fireworks Festival, was held. The opening ceremony was kicked off by the white "White Chrysanthemum" fireworks. They are fireworks that symbolize comfort for those who lost their lives in the Nagaoka air raid. The famous "Sansakudama" that represents "Nagaoka Fireworks": The size of the fireworks bloom itself is determined by the size of the fireworks ball.

🇯🇵 2025 Nagaoka Fireworks Festival The Nagaoka Fireworks Festival (長岡まつり大花火大会), held annually in Nagaoka City, Niigata Prefecture in Japan's Tohoku region, is one of Japan's three major fireworks festivals. With a spectacular display of 20,000 fireworks and a variety of festival-themed delicacies, it attracts massive crowds every year, including many international tourists eager to witness the dazzling show! The festival takes place in early August along the banks of the Shinano River. Its main highlights include the gigantic "Sanjakudama" fireworks with a diameter of 650 meters and the "Phoenix Revival Fireworks" launched simultaneously from six locations. The breathtaking and magnificent scenes make it a must-visit event. However, keep in mind that tickets are required for on-site viewing seats. It's recommended to book early, and since the festival is held outdoors by the riverside, don't forget to prepare for mosquitoes! Date: August 2-3 Time: 19:20-21:10

The Nagaoka Fireworks Festival is one of Japan's leading fireworks festivals, held every summer in Nagaoka City, Niigata Prefecture. It began in 1886 and now boasts a history of about 140 years. This festival is held with the meaning of praying for post-war reconstruction, and is widely known as the "Nagaoka Fireworks" that have been held since the Taisho era. It is held every year on the first Saturday and Sunday of August, and about 20,000 fireworks are launched. Among them, the large fireworks called "Shosan Shakudama" are particularly famous, and have a powerful diameter of about 600 meters. In addition, the "star mines" that are launched in time with music and the creative productions also fascinate the audience. The first time I saw it, I was so moved that I cried. I would love for everyone to experience such a fireworks festival! #0 yen trip February 2025 #Nagaoka Fireworks Festival

#GlobalTravel #Niigata #Nagaoka #Nagaoka Fireworks Festival Last time I talked about one of the trips was to the Nagaoka Fireworks Festival This time I want to talk more: how to draw admission + recommended viewing locations The Nagaoka Fireworks Festival is one of the three major fireworks festivals in Japan In two days, 20,000 fireworks will be set off🎇 📅Hold on August 2nd and 3rd every year ⏰ Starts at 7:20 and ends at 9:10 on both days 📍Shinano Riverside The official has changed the system in recent years, from the previous no reservation to provide reserved seats, need to pay in advance to have the best viewing experience, it is recommended to pay attention in May when the official start to draw the conference designated seats tickets, the official website is divided into overseas + Japan domestic two channels draw tickets, overseas will close earlier However, if you can't draw a ticket, you can actually go to the river bank early to find a seat. The Japanese usually set up a picnic mat early that morning, or even the night before ⭐️ Personally would recommend the lawn near the Waterway Park, more people, but the location is quite good, see the fireworks will not feel very far!

📍 Nagaoka Matsuri Grand Fireworks Festival This time I used a 16-80 lens, high-speed continuous shooting mode, shutter speed set to 1/2 second, aperture f/8, ISO320. Except for the added text, all other photos are direct output. Because I wanted to focus on the beauty of the fireworks display, I didn't try other settings. The effect is quite good! #Want to record this moment #Note inspiration #Fuji XT5 #Nagaoka Fireworks #Recorder of romantic life #Fireworks #Fireworks Festival #Summer Fireworks #Japan #Japan Travel #Japan Tourism #Japan Free Travel #Fuji Camera #Fuji Direct Out #Make a wish to the fireworks #Super beautiful fireworks

📌Shooting location selection: Give priority to places close to fireworks, and make sure there are street lights or other similar auxiliary light sources. If you are too far away from the fireworks, the proportion between the person and the fireworks may be unbalanced. The lack of natural auxiliary light source will also make autofocus difficult, thus affecting the clarity of the person. If conditions are limited, try to choose a shooting position closer to the fireworks. 📷Camera settings: In order to capture people's movements, the shutter speed cannot be too slow; at the same time, the focus needs to be switched quickly, so the autofocus function is crucial. The ISO should be manually adjusted as high as possible (but to avoid excessive noise), and the aperture should be set to a level that makes the background slightly blurred. It is recommended to set the shutter speed and focus to automatic. Taking the 33mm f/1.4 lens I use as an example, the ISO is usually set to 3200, the aperture size is between f/4 and f/5.6, and the shutter speed is generally not less than 1/3 second. When shooting, you can switch the focus between people and fireworks to create different effects.

Of course there must be fireworks displays in summer! The Nagaoka Fireworks Festival was a masterpiece, and we also encountered a stunning sunset. After getting off the Shinkansen, as the crowds of people moved through the surging crowd, people speaking different languages ​​sat side by side, gathering together to cheer for every firework that exploded.

The best way to travel to and from Tokyo on the same day is to take the JR Joetsu Shinkansen. The official website of the Nagaoka Fireworks Festival has announced the return JR timetable (pay special attention to the second table, heading to Tokyo). Considering the time when the fireworks festival ends and the time it takes to walk from the venue to Nagaoka Station, we mainly use the four trains after 21:30. Since there are so many people watching the fireworks display, Shinkansen tickets are in great demand. JR East Shinkansen tickets can be reserved one month in advance, either directly by booking Shinkansen tickets or through a purchased JR pass. I personally tried it last year and successfully made an appointment immediately after the tickets were released. If anyone needs help, please leave a message to share your experience. #Nagaoka #Nagaoka Fireworks #Nagaoka Travel
