Fireworks Launching Into the Seto Inland Night Sky - The Summer Festival's Grand Finale

About this spot

The finale of the Takehara Summer Festival Fireworks Grand Event features fireworks launched from the Seto Inland Sea offshore the J-POWER (Electric Power Development) ground. Large bursts of light blooming in the night sky above the calm inner sea reflect on the still sea surface, creating an fantastical scene unique to a seaside setting. This fireworks display, beloved by the community as the closing of Takehara's summer festival, is a special moment illuminating the historic town's night. As you watch, recall the white-walled townscape you walked through during the day and the sea you surveyed from Fumeikan, and savor Takehara's summer night.

Tips

Check with Takehara City or the event organizer's official announcement on the day regarding whether the event will be held in case of bad weather. After the event ends, viewers move all at once, so the area around JR Takehara Station becomes congested. It's reassuring to wait a bit before departing or to check your train's departure time in advance. The ground becomes dark, so use your smartphone's flashlight.

Best time to visit

Scheduled for 20:00-20:30 (8:00 PM - 8:30 PM). Please secure your viewing location by 30 minutes before the start.
