Jingu Gaien Fireworks Festival 2015

Yukata-clad spectators crowd the streets of Harajuku and Aoyama during the annual Jingu Gaien Fireworks, a display that ranks alongside the Sumida River and Tokyo Bay events as one of Tokyo's top summer fireworks festivals. The cluster of sports stadiums to the south of Sendagaya Station offer the best vantage points, albeit at a significant premium: expect to pay between ¥2,500 and ¥6,500 for admission to each, which includes a programme of J-pop performances in the run-up to the fireworks themselves. Alternatively, just wander around the surrounding area until you find somewhere you can see the action for free.
