Approximately 600 fireworks in the Seto Inland night sky—summer fireworks viewed from the pine forest and beach

About this spot

The climactic fireworks festival of the Sanuki Tsuda Festival, held August 22, 2026 (Saturday) from 8:00-8:30 PM at Tsuda Pine Forest and its swimming beach. Approximately 600 fireworks burst successively into the night sky above the Seto Inland Sea, their shimmering reflections spreading across the calm water. Fireworks rising against the nationally designated white sand and green pines backdrop possess a charm distinct from urban fireworks displays; viewing from between the pines offers a particularly special experience. Savor this 30-minute summer festival climax beloved by locals, with the ocean breeze on your face from the beach. After the finale fades, carefully navigate back through the pine forest for your return journey.

Tips

Confirm poor weather cancellation in advance via the official event organizer announcement. After the event, roads become congested; either walk to JR Sanuki Tsuda Station or stagger vehicle departure times. The pine forest has limited lighting after the show, so bringing a small light ensures safety. Crouching for beach viewing provides better front-on firework visibility.

Best time to visit

From 8:00-8:30 PM event time. Settle into your beach or forest viewing spot 15-20 minutes before start.
