2026 Biwako Fireworks Festival to be Held on August 6th (Thursday)! Tixplus Provides Electronic Tickets and Official Resale for Paid Viewing Seats!

Ticketplus Inc., provider of the electronic ticketing service "Tixplus" and the organizer-approved official resale service "Tixplus Trade," announced that these services have been adopted for the "2026 Biwako Fireworks Festival."

The "Biwako Fireworks Festival" is held annually around August 6th in the waters off Otsu Port in Otsu City, Shiga Prefecture. Last year's attendance was reported by the organizers to be approximately 340,000, attracting visitors from within Shiga and beyond. To commemorate the 40th anniversary, this year's event will feature a two-part performance with different thematic presentations. Tickets for paid viewing seats, which offer a full experience of Shiga's summer tradition, are available for purchase.

Tickets for this event will be issued via the "Tixplus App." Everything from ticket receipt to entry on the day is completed with a smartphone, ensuring smooth access.

For those who unfortunately cannot attend the event, please use the official resale service "Tixplus Trade." While unauthorized ticket resale on unofficial platforms (such as resale sites or social media) is a major issue, Tixplus Trade is recognized as a service designed for fans to prevent illicit scalping. Another feature is the ability to purchase tickets until just before the event.
