Visit a historic shrine in central Numata for a moment of peace before the fireworks
About this spot
A historic shrine located in Numata City, long cherished by local people as a place of prayer. Throughout Numata's history as a castle town, various temples and shrines are scattered about, and the quiet grounds offer an ideal place to calm your mind before the fireworks. Walking along the tree-lined approach and praying for the safe conduct of tonight's fireworks festival provides a mental reset for the latter half of the day. The grounds in late afternoon, before sunset, are less crowded, offering a peaceful atmosphere for a moment's rest.

2026年9月12日(土)19時00分から19時45分まで、沼田市運動公園を会場に打ち上げられる沼田花火大会です。打上数は1万発以上と北関東の秋花火としてもトップクラスの規模を誇ります。9月の澄んだ秋の夜空は透明度が高く、花火の色と光が夏よりもくっきりと映えるのが特徴です。利根川流域の山々に囲まれた沼田の地形が音を反響させ、腹に響く迫力のある打ち上げ音も楽しめます。フィナーレに向けて打ち上げが加速する終盤は、空全体が光で埋め尽くされる圧巻の45分間。レジャーシートの上でゆったりと夜空を見上げながら、秋の群馬の夜を家族みんなで満喫しましょう。
Tips
荒天時の開催可否は大会公式の発表や沼田市の案内で確認してください。終了後は会場周辺の道路と駐車場から出るまでに時間がかかります。フィナーレ後は会場内でしばらく余韻を楽しんでから移動すると混雑を避けやすくなります。足元が暗いためライトを用意し、小さなお子さまの手をしっかりつないで帰路についてください。
