2026 Oura Festival Fireworks Show: A Full-Day Course
A course centered on the Oura Festival Fireworks Show (held Sunday, August 23, 2026) that lets you enjoy a full day in and around Ora Town (邑楽町), Ora District, Gunma Prefecture. In the afternoon, take a leisurely stroll through Tatebayashi Castle Ruins Park (館林城址公園), a classic spot in the Tatebayashi area, and cool off in the cultural forest home to the Tatebayashi City Museum of Art (館林市立美術館). In the evening, stop by Michi-no-Eki Naganuma (道の駅ながぬま) in Ora Town to fill up on local flavors, then move to Oura Central Park (おうら中央公園) to secure a spot. At 8:00 pm, once it's dark, fireworks bloom large in the night sky, vividly coloring a summer night in the countryside. This is a plan the whole family can enjoy, savoring the peaceful scenery of northern Kanto and the heat of a local summer festival over the course of a day.
