Enjoy approximately 2,000 fireworks from the Yibo River riverbank, reflecting off the water's surface

About this spot

Tatsuno City's summer festival unfolding on the Yibo River riverbank (Ryoyo District). Approximately 2,000 fireworks burst successively into the night sky and reflect off the water's surface, creating a spectacular interplay of light. With the "Little Kyoto of Harima" castle town as a backdrop, the fireworks can be enjoyed up close from the riverbank's unique vantage point. The launch sounds resonate with the river breeze, becoming a deeply etched memory of a summer night. The Yibo River you viewed from the castle ruins during the day transforms into a stage of light at night—a fitting climax to the day.

Tips

Confirm the start time from official information in advance (subject to change as time is not yet determined). Check the festival's official announcement for whether the event will be held in case of inclement weather. Traffic around the area becomes congested after the show, so waiting a while before departing is recommended. Confirm the last train's departure time in advance.

Best time to visit
