Fireworks details

Name: 香南市吉川夏まつり花火大会

Date & time: 7/26 (Sun) 21:00–21:25

Venue: 香南市・吉川漁港堤防

2026年7月26日(日)21時から25分間、吉川漁港堤防から打ち上がる香南市吉川夏まつり花火大会のフィナーレです。太平洋に向かって開けた漁港の堤防から見上げる花火は、海面に光を映しながら夜空に大きく開き、漁師町の夏まつりならではの温かみがあります。コンパクトな地元の夏まつりだからこそ、会場との距離が近く、花火の音と光を体全体で感じられるのがこの大会の魅力です。波の音と花火の轟音が重なる25分間は、家族みんなの夏の記憶に刻まれる特別な時間になるでしょう。フィナーレの光が消えたら、満天の星空の下でしばらく余韻を楽しんでから帰路につきましょう。

Tips

荒天時の開催可否は香南市または大会主催者の公式発表で当日確認を。終了後は会場周辺の道路が混み合うことがあるため、時間差での帰宅がおすすめです。堤防は暗く足元が不安定な箇所もあるため、子どもの手をしっかりつなぎ、スマホのライトで足元を照らしながら移動しましょう。翌日が月曜日のため、帰路の時間も事前に計画しておくと安心です。
