Taking place around Yokohama Port, Yokohama Sparkling Twilight lights up not only the city but also the sky above it. It's a stunning sight as the fireworks are set off above the illuminated boats crisscrossing the sea in front of Yamashita Park.
This time around, there are 13 five-minute fireworks displays scheduled from April to September. Depending on the date, the fireworks are launched at either Osanbashi Pier and/or Shinko Pier. This makes the seaside Yamashita Park an ideal vantage point to catch all the explosive action.
Along with the fireworks, Yokohama is also hosting several fringe events in the city, including Yokohama Frühlingsfest (April 26-May 6), Belgian Beer Weekend Yokohama (May 16-19), Hama-Fes Y165 (May 25-26) and more. See the event website for updates.
Fireworks are held on June 22, July 13, 27, August 10, 31, September 14, and 21. (2024)
