Description

From the second floor of a "yakatabune" river boat, indulge in a 360-degree panoramic view to fully enjoy one of Tokyo's world-famous fireworks shows!

In previous years, the Adachi Fireworks Festival was held annually in late July. From 2025, with each year getting hotter, we will celebrate in May!

Both the Adachi Fireworks Festival and the Sumida River Fireworks Festival can be seen from the riverside, but the viewing area gets more and more crowded each year. For a comfortable — even luxurious — way to enjoy the amazing show, consider a river cruise with sukiyaki dinner!

Experience the spectacle of 13,000 fireworks illuminating the Tokyo night sky in just one hour from aboard a yakatabune, offering privileged access to the fireworks launch area. Delight in traditional Japanese music performed by skilled musicians onboard, and savor the exquisite Kuroge Wagyu sukiyaki along with unlimited soft drinks while immersing yourself in the tranquil riverside scenery.

Step aboard the yakatabune houseboat, with a history dating back to the Heian period (794–1185), which was used for entertainment by nobles and merchants during the Edo period (1603–1868). Head inside the cabin, where delectable Japanese cuisine awaits. On the upper deck, enjoy a spacious open-air viewing platform, leading to a uniquely designed outdoor observation area where the beauty of Tokyo Bay unfolds before your eyes.

The "Adachi Fireworks" is a festival with a history of over 100 years. It was originally held in 1733 during the Mizukami Festival on the Sumida River to comfort the victims of famine and pray for the end of the epidemic by setting off fireworks. This event is considered the origin of today’s fireworks festivals. In 2020, amid the pandemic, Japan saw a surge in infections, overwhelming the healthcare system with no end in sight. Many fireworks companies also ignited fireworks, praying for the end of the pandemic and the retreat of evil.

Last year marked the return of the Adachi Fireworks Festival after a 4-year hiatus, and this year’s 47th edition will launch approximately 13,000 fireworks, promising a dazzling display of colorful lights like a light show!

The Adachi Fireworks Festival is considered the oldest fireworks festival in history. Its origins can be traced back to 1733, when the event was held to pray for the end of famine and the expulsion of evil spirits. This significant event, the Adachi Fireworks Festival, is also the largest and most recent downtown fireworks gathering in Tokyo. Here, everyone can indulge in delicious food and enjoy spectacular fireworks displays to their heart’s content.
