About this spot
Held on Sunday, August 2, 2026, this is the fireworks display of the 66th Port Festival, which brings summer on Okinoerabujima's Wadomari-cho to a close. Fireworks light up the night sky over Wadomari Port, the island's gateway, coloring the clear sky unique to a remote island. As the finale of a port festival long cherished by the community, it's a lively night where locals and tourists gather together.

Tips
The event may be cancelled or postponed in bad weather, so check Wadomari-cho's official announcement on the day for whether it's going ahead. Roads around the port get crowded after it ends, so leaving at a staggered time is recommended. It's breezy and cool along the coast, so bringing something to put on is reassuring.
Best time to visit
Timed to the roughly 19:00-20:00 event window. Secure your viewing spot at least 30 minutes before it starts.
