Flow of the course

About this spot

The Mino City Citizens' Fireworks Display is a beloved summer tradition held amid the rich natural surroundings along the Nagara River (長良川). Fireworks launched from the banks of the Nagara River downstream of Shimowatari Bridge (下渡橋) color the night sky together with a band of light reflected on the clear river's surface. The terrain along the river, surrounded by mountains, echoes the sound of the fireworks, letting you enjoy a powerful presentation that resonates through your body. A luxurious viewing environment where, despite its compact scale, you can enjoy fireworks both in the sky and on the water's surface is an appeal unique to this display. Savor the 30-minute feast of light and sound that closes out the region's summer, together with the breeze off the Nagara River.

Tips

Check Mino City's official announcements in advance for whether the event will go ahead in case of severe weather. Roads around the venue get crowded right after the show ends, so it's recommended to enjoy the afterglow at the riverbank for a bit before moving. It's reassuring to check the location of the parking lot where you left your car and your walking route back while it's still light out. It gets dark underfoot on the way back along the river, so bring a light.

Best time to visit

Timed to the event running 19:30-20:00. Secure your viewing spot 30 minutes before the start
