Fireworks details

Name: ななせの火群まつり

Date & time: 7/26 (Sun) 20:45–21:00

Venue: 大分市・七瀬川自然公園

「ななせの火群まつり」のフィナーレを飾る花火大会で、七瀬川自然公園の夜空を舞台に繰り広げられます。川沿いの公園は視界が開けており、打ち上がる花火を遮るものなく正面から楽しめるのが魅力です。川面に映る花火の光が揺らめく様子は、公園の自然の中ならではの美しさ。川風が肌に心地よい夏の夜に、家族みんなで夜空を見上げる時間はこの1日のクライマックスです。20時45分から21時までの短い時間に凝縮された光と音の演出を、ゆっくりと心に刻みましょう。

Tips

荒天時の開催可否は大分市または大会主催者の公式発表で当日必ず確認してください。終了後は会場周辺の道路と駐車場が大変混雑します。フィナーレ後は公園内で少し余韻を楽しんでから時間差で移動するのがおすすめです。足元が暗くなるため、小さなライトを持参しておくと安心。帰りの車やバスの時刻は事前に確認しておきましょう。
