About this spot

The Yabakei Dam Lakeside, venue of the Yabakei Lakeside Festival, begins to fill with local residents awaiting the fireworks display as evening approaches. After spreading out a leisure sheet to secure your spot, enjoy light food from the stalls or your pre-packed bento for dinner. Watching the sun sink behind the mountains and the lake surface gradually change colors is a luxurious moment unique to a lake nestled in the mountains.

Fireworks details

Name: 耶馬溪湖畔祭り

Date & time: 8/11 (Tue) Time TBA

Venue: 耶馬溪ダム湖畔

2026年8月11日(火)開催、耶馬溪ダム湖畔を会場にした第44回耶馬溪湖畔祭りのクライマックスです。周囲を山々に囲まれた湖という地形のため、打ち上げの音が山肌に反響し、都会の花火大会とはひと味違う迫力を感じられます。静かな湖面に映る花火の輝きも、この祭りならではの見どころです。渓谷散策の余韻とともに、山あいの夜を彩る花火を家族でじっくり味わいましょう。

Tips

荒天時は中止や延期の可能性があるため、当日は中津市の公式発表を確認しましょう。終了後は山道が混み合うため、少し時間を置いてから帰路につくのがおすすめです。夜は足元が暗いので懐中電灯やスマホのライトを準備しておくと安心です。
