Japanese fireworks Düsseldorf

Boat trips to the fireworks including catering services

Düsseldorf Rhine promenade with ships and fireworks on the Rhine

The Japan Day culture and encounter festival with its all-encompassing Far Eastern visual fireworks transforms Düsseldorf into "Little Tokyo on the Rhine" for a day.

Japanese fireworks experts travel to Düsseldorf especially for the Japan Day event. The "Hanabi", the typical pyrotechnics from the Land of the Rising Sun, also arrive weeks before the event. As a guest on board the KD , the impressive, colorful spectacle and the thematically designed sky images will give you an idea of the grandiose masterpiece that lies behind it, and after an enchanting half hour, it will be over all too soon. Experience it for yourself!
