View Approximately 10,000 Large Fireworks Launched from Within Aburatsu Port

About this spot

Held on July 18, 2026 (Saturday), the Nichinan Sun Marine Stadium Fireworks Festival takes place within Aburatsu Port. Approximately 10,000 fireworks burst one after another into the night sky over the port, and the bands of light reflected on the quiet port's water surface create a fantastical scene. The port's enclosed terrain amplifies sound, allowing you to experience the fireworks' powerful impact up close—a unique charm of Aburatsu Port. During approximately one hour on this hot summer night in southern Miyazaki, each firework burst transforms the night sky, creating a climax worthy of this day's journey.

Tips

Confirm the opening time in advance through the festival's official announcement (time to be determined). Also check official information regarding cancellation due to inclement weather. After the event, surrounding roads will be heavily congested, so if traveling by car, consider traveling with time delays or using public transportation for peace of mind. JR Aburatsu Station will be very crowded after the fireworks end, so check train schedules in advance. Ground conditions will be dark, so use your smartphone's light as needed.

Best time to visit

Secure your viewing location early in accordance with the opening time. It is reassuring to establish your position at least 30 minutes before the start.
