2026 Uwajima Ushioni Festival Offshore Fireworks — Full-Day Course
Centered on the Uwajima Ushioni Festival Offshore Fireworks held on Wednesday, July 22, 2026, this full-day course lets you enjoy Uwajima, the castle town of Nanyo, from midday onward. In the afternoon, climb Uwajima Castle (宇和島城), which has watched over the former Uwajima Domain's castle town for centuries, then visit Kaimei School (開明学校), known as one of Shikoku's leading domain schools. In the evening, fill up on Uwajima's signature local cuisine before heading to Uwajima Bay. The Uwajima Ushioni Festival fireworks, launched over the night sea, reflect off the calm surface of Uwajima Bay as they color the summer sky.
