About this spot

The park is relatively spacious, and children can play on the sand or cool off at the water's edge, making it ideal for a brief rest before evening. As evening approaches, food stalls and festival preparations begin, letting you experience the excitement leading up to the festival.

Fireworks details

Name: 与那原大綱曳まつり

Date & time: 8/15 (Sat)・8/16 (Sun) Time TBA

Venue: 与那原町・与那古浜公園および御殿山青少年広場

与那原大綱曳まつりは、琉球王朝時代から続く伝統の綱引き行事を現代に受け継ぐ、与那原町最大の夏祭りです。東西に分かれた綱引きの熱戦と、勇壮な演舞が祭り全体を盛り上げ、フィナーレには夜空を彩る花火が打ち上げられます。与那古浜公園と御殿山青少年広場を舞台に、地域の人々の熱気と夏の夜の海風が交わる特別な時間。花火は海辺の会場から打ち上がるため、海面に光が映える瞬間も楽しみのひとつです。琉球の伝統と夏の夜空が一体となるクライマックスを、ゆっくり味わいましょう。

Tips

開催時間の詳細は当日の大会公式アナウンスで確認してください。終了後は会場周辺の道路や駐車場が大変混雑するため、花火終了後はしばらく会場内や浜辺で余韻を楽しんでから移動するのがおすすめです。帰りの車のルートは複数確認しておくと安心です。

Tips

Located in the center of Yonabaru Town, easily accessible from National Route 329. Parking lot congestion intensifies from evening onward on festival day, so parking is still easy at this time. It's reassuring to check restroom locations during the day for nighttime peace of mind.

Best time to visit

Approximately 1 hour 30 minutes required. Late afternoon, when the sun's glare subsides, is ideal for leisurely strolling.
