About this spot
Held at 7:00 PM on Saturday, August 22, 2026, this is a fireworks display set against the backdrop of Isawa Dam. Fireworks burst into the night sky over the dam lake surrounded by mountains, with the sound echoing all around for a powerful scale that resonates through your whole body. The fireworks' light reflected on the calm surface of the dam lake is also a highlight unique to this venue. Enjoy the fireworks standing out clearly against the clear mountain night sky together with your family.

Tips
Check the event's official announcement to confirm whether it will go ahead in case of bad weather. Even in midsummer, the mountain nights get chilly, so don't forget something to layer on. The mountain roads get congested after the show ends, so it's recommended to enjoy the afterglow for a while before staggering your departure.
