Flow of the course

About this spot

Held on Sunday, August 23, 2026, this is the summer festival fireworks display that colors Shobara City, rich in nature in northern Hiroshima Prefecture. Fireworks launched into the night sky over the basin, surrounded by mountains, echo especially loudly as the sound reverberates. Watching fireworks in the clear air characteristic of the highlands has a power and beauty quite different from fireworks festivals in the city. It's a memorable moment for the family, closing out a Shobara summer wrapped in rich nature.

Tips

Check official announcements from Shobara City or the organizer for whether the event will go ahead in case of bad weather. Roads in the area get congested after the event ends, so it's recommended to enjoy the afterglow for a while before moving. Temperatures drop at night in the mountains, so don't forget to dress warmly too.
