Secure your viewing spot at a park near the fireworks venue and enjoy dinner while overlooking Miyazu Bay
About this spot
A park adjacent to the main viewing area of the Miyazu Lantern Floating and Fireworks Festival, featuring wide lawns facing Miyazu Bay. On the festival day, many spectators gather, and spot-securing becomes serious from evening. The evening scenery of Miyazu Bay viewed from the park is beautiful, and the sea's color changes moment by moment as the sun sets. Food stalls and vendors are set up nearby, allowing you to purchase dinner and enjoy a leisurely meal on your sheet. As the sun sets, lanterns begin floating across the sea's surface, and the fantastical atmosphere builds before the fireworks begin. Confirming the location of restrooms during this time will bring peace of mind for the evening.
