Approximately 1,500 Fireworks Illuminate the Summer Night Sky of the Hot Spring Town - Festival Climax

About this spot

The Ureshino Hot Spring Summer Festival Fireworks Grand Festival is an annual summer tradition of Ureshino City held on August 11. Approximately 1,500 fireworks are launched from Miyuki Park, brilliantly illuminating the night sky of the hot spring town along the Ureshino River in vivid colors. The charm of this compact venue is the closeness to the fireworks, and the impact of blooms spreading right before your eyes is extraordinary. The sight where the light of fireworks reflected on the river surface and the glimmer of hot spring inn lights merge in the nightscape has a charm unique to hot spring areas. After spending a full day in Ureshino with your family, thoroughly enjoy the light and sound filling the summer night sky as the grand finale.

Tips

In case of bad weather, check the Ureshino City or official festival announcement for confirmation of whether the event will be held. Roads and parking areas around the venue become congested after the festival ends. After the fireworks end, staggered departure where you enjoy the lingering atmosphere in the park before heading home helps reduce congestion. Confirm your return transportation schedule (bus/car) in advance. The area becomes dark, so having your smartphone's light function is reassuring.

Best time to visit

With the 8 PM start time, be sure to secure your viewing spot at least 30 minutes in advance.
