2026 Otaue Festival Village Fireworks Display (御田祭の里 花火大会): Full-Day Course
Centered on the Otaue Festival Village Fireworks Display (御田祭の里 花火大会), held on Saturday, July 4, 2026, this full-day course lets you enjoy the nature and culture of Misato Town (美郷町), Miyazaki Prefecture, from midday onward. In the afternoon, savor the scenery along the Mimi River (耳川) amid Misato's rich nature, and taste local dishes at the area's roadside station. After that, stop by Nango Shrine (南郷神社), which carries the history of this mythical village, and feel the air of a place tied to Hyuga mythology. In the evening, secure a spot at the Community Plaza (ふれあい広場) near the venue and fill up on food-stall favorites nearby. Once night falls, about 1,200 fireworks open one after another in the night sky, vividly coloring the mountain village's quiet night. This is a special summer day plan to spend unhurried time in Miyazaki's deep mountain village, away from the bustle of the city.
