About this spot

Held on Saturday, July 25, 2026, this is the fireworks display of the Tazawako Dragon God Festival, held on the shore of Lake Tazawa. For about an hour, from 8 p.m. to 9 p.m., fireworks launch one after another into the night sky.

Tips

In case of severe weather, the event may be canceled or its date changed, so check in advance whether it will be held that day. Surrounding roads get crowded afterward, so it's recommended to savor the afterglow for a while before heading home.
