Marine Port Kagoshima (Fireworks Viewing Venue)

Flow of the course

About this spot

"Cherry Blossom Island and Artistic Fireworks" is a festival held at Marine Port Kagoshima where you can enjoy artistic fireworks while viewing Sakurajima across Kinko Bay. Music-synchronized performances and beautifully designed artistic fireworks burst one after another into the night sky, creating Kagoshima's distinctive grand landscape through contrast with Sakurajima's silhouette across the bay. The open space of the harbor allows unobstructed viewing of the fireworks overhead—a charm unique to this venue. Don't miss the fireworks' light reflected on the water's surface. Artistic fireworks enjoyed in spring's Kinko Bay evening breeze have become a cherished seasonal tradition, attracting many fans to Kagoshima.
