Approximately 2,000 Fireworks Light the Night Sky Above Susaki Bay—A Summer Spectacular Viewed from the Sandy Beach

About this spot

The Susaki City Summer Cooling Fireworks Festival launching from offshore at Fuji-ga-hama Beach beginning at 8 PM on August 1st, 2026 (Saturday). Approximately 2,000 fireworks burst sequentially into the night sky above Susaki Bay, painting it with brilliant blooms as the sound of explosions resonates across the entire beach over the sound of waves. The light of fireworks reflected on the water's surface and the night wind carrying the scent of the sea create a fireworks experience unique to this location. Long cherished by locals as an important summer cooling event that marks the end of Susaki's summer, this festival holds deep community significance. As the finale approaches, the frequency of bursts increases, and the afterglow felt when the final large sphere blooms in the night sky is something only experienced from the sandy beach.
