View Fireworks Launching from Above the Quiet Lake and Their Reflections in the Water

About this spot

Held on August 29, 2026 (Saturday), this fireworks festival on Kamizai Lake, a quiet lake in Izumo City, features a unique appeal. Fireworks launched from above the lake beautifully reflect on the calm water surface, creating "inverted fireworks" that can be enjoyed—a distinctive feature of this festival. Watching fireworks in this quiet environment surrounded by greenery offers a more serene atmosphere compared to typical urban fireworks festivals. It will surely be a memorable moment that captures the essence of summer in nature-rich Izumo.

Tips

Check the official announcements from Izumo City or the organizers for any updates regarding weather-related cancellations. After the event, the road from the lakeshore to the parking lot becomes congested, so it's recommended to enjoy the lingering atmosphere for a while before heading out. As it will be dark, prepare a smartphone light or similar for safety.

Best time to visit

Aligned with the 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM event time. Positioning yourself where the lake surface is visible allows you to enjoy the inverted fireworks as well.
