Approximately 8,000 fireworks blooming brilliantly across the Oita River's night sky and water surface
About this spot
On Saturday, August 29, 2026, at 7:30 PM, approximately 8,000 fireworks burst into the night sky upstream of Oita River Benten Bridge. The wide riverbed visible from both banks serves as the venue, where reflections of fireworks in the river surface blend with large blooms in the night sky, creating beauty unique to Oita. Starmines and large fireworks continue in rhythmic succession, with finale bursts that instantly illuminate Oita's night sky. An hour spent watching under the pleasant river breeze on a summer evening in Oita is truly a moment worthy of marking summer's end.
