About this spot

Held from 7 PM on Saturday, August 1, 2026, this fireworks display closes out summer in Kamou-cho. From a venue surrounded by mountains, fireworks light up the night sky for a full hour. With few tall buildings in the area, you can fully enjoy the fireworks spreading across the clear night sky — a real highlight of the show. It's a fitting climax to a day spent exploring a giant tree and a historic townscape, a summer night the whole community gathers to watch.

Tips

The event may be canceled or postponed in case of bad weather, so check Aira City's official announcements on the day to confirm whether it's going ahead. Nearby roads get crowded after it ends, so it's a good idea to linger and enjoy the afterglow a little before heading out. Streetlights are scarce in the area, so bringing something like a phone light to see your footing is reassuring.
