From the 800m mountain elevation, witness approximately 10,000 fireworks brilliantly illuminate the autumn night sky

About this spot

Held on Saturday, September 26, 2026, this fireworks festival at Autopolis features approximately 10,000 fireworks launching into the wide night sky from the 800m elevation. The echo of sound off surrounding mountains creates an impact entirely different from flatland fireworks festivals. The open high-altitude sky with few obstructions allows dynamic enjoyment of the entire fireworks display. Large blooming flowers of light against the crisp autumn sky appear vivid in color, creating beautiful contrast with the mountain ridgeline. The moment when the finale's rapid succession illuminates the entire mountainside is an extraordinary experience unique to this location.

Tips

Please confirm the official event announcement for start time (timing was undetermined at the time of this information creation). Also confirm the official announcement for whether the event will be held in case of bad weather. After the event ends, traffic from the parking lot onto regular roads will be concentrated, so departing at intervals while enjoying the afterglow helps ease congestion. Mountain roads require careful attention during night driving on your return.
