Fireworks and their reflection on the sea: a spectacular competition of light above and below

About this spot

The Ine Fireworks Festival takes place on August 29, 2026 (Saturday) at 6 PM, with the rare funayadori townscape of Japan as its backdrop. The greatest charm of Ine Bay is that the water surface is calm and mirror-like, allowing the fireworks in the night sky to be beautifully reflected in the sea, creating a stunning visual spectacle. Against the backdrop of the continuous funayadori, the fireworks light spreads across the entire quiet inlet. Enjoy this unique moment with your family, where the sea and town are one, creating a fireworks display unlike those in urban venues.
