Fireworks burst into the quiet night sky of the mountains—a summer tradition unique to the UNESCO World Heritage village
About this spot
Held on August 15, 2026 (Saturday), a fireworks festival illuminating the UNESCO World Heritage Gokayama Taira District. While the number of fireworks is not publicly announced, the fireworks that bloom with sound resonating through the quiet night sky surrounded by mountains have a charm distinctly different from urban fireworks festivals. You can spend a special time unique to Gokayama where the landscape of the gassho-style village overlaps with the night sky fireworks.
