Atami Marine Fireworks Festival: April 28th (Mon)
Enjoy spectacular fireworks in a natural stadium
The Atami Marine Fireworks Festival is a historic fireworks festival that is held more than 10 times a year.
It began in 1952 and is held not only in summer but also in spring and autumn.
Atami Bay is surrounded by mountains on three sides and has a "bowl-shaped" topography, so the sound of the fireworks reverberates, creating an acoustic effect like that of a large stadium.
The highlights of the festival are the fireworks that spread into the night sky, the fireworks reflected on the water, and the "Great Aerial Niagara" that decorates the finale.
On the day of the fireworks festival, food stalls are lined up on the deck of the waterfront park, and special viewing seats are also set up.

ATAMI Jacaranda Festival 2025
Atami in early summer, decorated with purple flowers that bring happiness
The Atami Jacaranda Festival is an event held every year in early summer on the Jacaranda Promenade in Atami City, Shizuoka Prefecture.
Jacaranda trees were given to the city of Cascais in Portugal, and currently over 100 trees are planted along the coast of Atami.
Jacaranda trees, which bloom with purple flowers, are also called "purple cherry blossoms," and their beautiful flowers color Atami in early summer.
During the event, the Jacaranda Promenade is lit up, allowing you to enjoy a fantastic night view.
It is said that happiness will come if a jacaranda flower falls on your head, and you can feel that good fortune as you walk.
"Firefly Viewing" in Atami plum garden
From late May to early June, Genji fireflies flutter around the clear stream of Hatsukawa within the plum garden, creating a fantastical scene.
The light of fireflies, known as "cold light," is emitted as a courtship signal and is sensitive to other lights.
During the event period, it is recommended to avoid strong lights and observe quietly.
Additionally, the Sawada Seiko Memorial Museum, adjacent to Atami Plum Garden, will extend its opening hours during the evening firefly viewing period, offering cultural enjoyment.
This event, where visitors can enjoy the dance of fireflies in nature, provides a special moment for those who attend.
