Ube Port (Yamaguchi Prefectural Ube Port Building) (宇部港（県営宇部ポートビル）)

Flow of the course

About this spot

Ube Port is an industrial port spreading along Ube's waterfront, and it's the launch venue for the fireworks festival. In the evening, the port's night view of the industrial district combined with the sea's surface creates a distinctive atmosphere, letting you enjoy scenery unique to Ube. As the sun sinks, viewers gather, so secure a spot at this time, spread out a leisure sheet, and settle in with the dinner you brought. The port's pleasant sea breeze is one of the pleasures of this time before the show as well. If there are food stalls, stopping by at this time lets you avoid the crowds right before the show starts.

Tips

Traffic restrictions may be in place around the venue on the day of the fireworks. Check the latest traffic information and parking guidance from Ube City's official announcements in advance. It's reassuring to use the restroom early, before the show starts. It's recommended to plan a few possible routes home in case of congestion on the way back.

Best time to visit

About 2 hours 20 minutes. Take your time enjoying the port scenery as it shifts from sunset to night.
