Fireworks details

Name: うと地蔵まつり 花火大会

Date & time: 8/23 (Sun) Time TBA

Venue: 宇土市善道寺町田園一帯

Shells: approx. 1,500

2026年8月23日(日)開催、うと地蔵まつりの締めくくりとなる花火大会です。宇土市善道寺町田園一帯から打ち上がる約1,500発の花火は、遮るものの少ない田園風景の中で大きく夜空に広がります。地蔵まつりとして地域に古くから伝わるこの行事は、宇土市の夏を締めくくる恒例行事として親しまれてきました。田んぼを渡る夜風とともに、家族で素朴な花火の時間を楽しみましょう。

Tips

荒天時は中止や延期になる場合があるため、当日の開催可否は市の公式発表で確認を。終了後は周辺道路が混み合うため、フィナーレの余韻を楽しんでから時間差での移動がおすすめです。田園地帯は街灯が少ないので懐中電灯を用意しておくと安心です。
