On the day of the festival, about 20,000 fireworks will brightly light up Tokyo's summer night. ✨
With an increasing number of tourists visiting Japan, this year's event is expected to be even more crowded than one year before.
This year's Sumida River Fireworks Festival will have two venues
Fireworks will be launched at the first venue around Kototoibashi Bridge and the second venue around Komagatabashi and Umayabashi Bridges. As the festival is held in the city center, there are not a lot of space on the riverbanks to sit, so the best experience would be to watch the fireworks while walking along the Sumida River.Location of Kototoi, Komagata and Umayabashi Bridges

Although, even on a typical day, the rooms with Tokyo Skytree view have the highest popularity and are likely to be chosen first, so there are probably will be even a higher demand on them on the day of the festival 😣
We recommend for you to plan your checking in as early as possible 😣

Plan in advance
On that day, Asakusa Station on all lines will be extremely crowded! The queue will likely start from the platform at the moment you get off the train, so it can take more than 15 minutes just to get up to the ground😣Instead of Asakusa Station, we recommend getting off one station before it😣
It's also a good idea to check the location of the toilets in advance🙆
