The 25th Tokyo Bay Fireworks Festival

[TAKK...] August 13, 2013 14:00

[Beginning of August]

I received a good news.

I got a numbered ticket for the main venue of Harumi, Tokyo Bay Fireworks Festival.

The Tokyo Bay Fireworks Festival is one of the best fireworks festivals in Tokyo, with as many as 12,000 fireworks being launched from the sea.

Harumi The main venue is one of the best places to view under the best conditions among the many venues.

 

[8:30 on the day]

The event was officially announced on the website of Chuo-ku.

The weather forecast is "Sunny and sometimes cloudy."

It's going to be very hot. It may be the hottest summer this summer.

I'm worried about the recent frequent guerrilla downpours.

 

[Around 16:00]

Take the Edo bus to Harumi 3-chome near the venue.

There are already many people, and emergency vehicles are also located.

Somehow, it's a terrible atmosphere.

Walk for about 10 minutes and enter the venue's premises.

Pass the side of the bridge under construction and head to the main venue.

By the time this bridge is completed, what is this area like?

 

[Around 16:30]

Proceed to the baseball stadium, which is close to the launch site even in the main venue.

In the hot weather, many people were already waiting for fireworks.

Set the radio you bring to Central FM and wait for the countdown while drinking beer.

Occasionally, the cool wind blows.

 

【18:00】

The gun roars in the sunset sky, and expectations are rising.

The countdown finally begins.

Fireworks are launched one after another with the voice of "zero!"

From the radio, a special program for the Tokyo Bay Fireworks Festival of Chuo FM was broadcast.

The fireworks looked so big that it looked like a star was falling.

 

[Around 20:10]

The Daika Securities Fire Festival, which was less than an hour and a half, ended in no time.

A generous applause was sent to the people of pyrotechnician who showed great fireworks and the people of Daika Securities Fire Festival.

On the way back, there was no great confusion, and many people walked in order.
