Approximately 3,000 Fireworks Illuminating Bingo's Early Summer Night Sky

About this spot

The Bingo Kokufu Festival Fireworks Grand Competition is a celebration of fireworks illuminating Fukuchū City's early summer—a place with a history as the site of Bingo Kokufu (the provincial capital). With Fukuchū Municipal Fukuchū Gakuen and its surroundings as the venue, approximately 3,000 fireworks light up the night sky in succession. Viewed from the Ashida River's banks, the fireworks create an enchanting landscape reflecting their light on the water's surface. Amid a diverse array of displays including starmine and large spherical shells, the powerful sound of the launches echoing through the mountain-surrounded town is equally spectacular. Watching the fireworks with family, wrapped in Bingo's early summer night breeze, will become an unforgettable memory unique to this place. The moment the finale's rapid-fire burst colors the night sky marks the climax of your day.
