View the fireworks launching into the night sky over Ube Port from the harbor wharf

About this spot

The Ube City Fireworks Festival is held every summer at Ube Port, representing Ube's summer. The light of fireworks reflected on the water surface offers a different sense of depth compared to traditional land-based fireworks displays. In 2026, fireworks will launch for 30 minutes from 8:00 PM to 8:30 PM on July 25 (Saturday). At Ube Port with the scent of the sea and the sound of waves, the moment when colorful lights paint the night sky is a special sight unique to Ube's summer. When the rapid-fire finale lights up the entire port, you and your whole family can experience the climax of this full day together.

Fireworks details

Tips

Check with Ube City's official announcement to confirm whether the event will be held in case of bad weather. After the show ends, roads around the venue and parking lot exits will be very crowded. Rather than leaving immediately after the fireworks end, waiting a while before departing helps ease congestion. Some areas are dark on the return path, so use your smartphone's light to move safely.

Best time to visit

Coordinated with the 8:00 PM to 8:30 PM show time. Arrive at your viewing spot 15-20 minutes before the start and wait comfortably.
