Next stop: About 5,000 Fireworks Shells Color the Night Sky Over IwanaiAbout this spot
The special venue set up on the west side of the Iwanai Regional Cultural Center is the stage for tonight's fireworks display. As evening approaches, local families begin to gather, and the festival mood rises while you feel the sea breeze unique to this venue facing the Sea of Japan. Spread out the takeout dinner you brought and wait for the show to begin while watching the sky over the sea grow dark. It's a summer evening moment to spend while still savoring the afterglow of the scenic drive you enjoyed during the day.
Tips
The area around the venue is expected to be crowded on the day, so allow plenty of time to get there. Nights by the sea can turn cool, so bring something to layer on. It's reassuring to check the location of restrooms while it's still light out.
Best time to visit
About 1 hour and 15 minutes needed. Around sunset, the sunset colors over the Sea of Japan are beautiful.
