This fireworks festival is held concurrently with the Todabashi Fireworks Festival in Toda City, Saitama Prefecture, located on the opposite bank of the Arakawa River. It boasts one of the largest scales in Tokyo, with approximately 15,000 fireworks launched from both banks combined. The event is packed with highlights, including the customary "Art Shells" (Geijutsudama)—crafted by Japan's premier pyrotechnicians and renowned for their delicate colors and shapes—as well as the "Shaku-go-sun-dama" (approx. 15-inch shell), which is one of the largest fireworks in Tokyo, and the wide starmine "Niagara in the Sky" that decorates the grand finale. Furthermore, in 2026, special fireworks will be launched to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Itabashi City Tourism Association.
*Note: The free viewing area is limited to a portion of the upstream section of the Arakawa riverbank. The nearest station is Takashimadaira Station on the Toei Mita Line.
