About this spot

Held on Saturday, August 1, 2026, this is a fireworks spectacular unique to a lake nestled in mountains. Approximately 4,000 fireworks launched from a platform boat on the lake resonate off the surrounding mountains, with the sound reverberating through your entire body with powerful impact. The beauty of the "inverted fireworks" reflected on the quiet lake surface is a signature sight of this lakeside festival. The moment the finale's rapid-fire display illuminates the entire lake and mountains is an experience of scale you cannot find in urban fireworks. Together with the cool night breeze, it becomes a memorable summer night you'll never forget.

Check the return train schedule for the Chuo Line in advance.
