ISOGAI Christmas Fireworks: Japan's Most Spectacular Winter Show in Nagoya!
Experience a Magical Christmas Evening with ISOGAI's Award-winning Theatrical Fireworks Display at Nagoya Port
On Dec. 20, 2025, ISOGAI Fireworks returns to Nagoya Port with "The One-and-Only Fireworks Story" —a 45-minute show combining pyrotechnics, music, and storytelling. It's one of Japan's most anticipated winter fireworks events, and tickets are selling fast.

What Makes This Different
ISOGAI Fireworks (磯谷花火劇場) from Okazaki tells an actual story through fireworks—each burst is timed to music and narration over 45 minutes. The harbor location means you see every explosion twice: in the sky and reflected in the water.
Tips for an Unforgettable Evening
Arrive Early:
Explore the area before the show—Nagoya Port Aquarium and the Sea Train Land Ferris Wheel make for a perfect lead-in to the evening.
Dress Warmly:
The ocean breeze can be sharp. Bring layers, gloves, scarves, blankets, or portable heating pads.
Come Prepared:
Food stalls may be available, but lines can be long. Bring your own hot drinks and snacks if you want to settle in early.
Photography Tips:
Tripods allowed only in Observation C Area—prohibited in G, SS, and S seats.
Seating Options
All seating inside the official viewing area is paid and reserved, ensuring clear sightlines from every seat. That said, you can still see the fireworks from many spots around the broader Nagoya Port area.
