Watch Fireworks Launch Along the Banks of the Kuzu River
About this spot
Held at Bentenryokuchi Park, which spreads along the banks of the Kuzu River near Katsuyama Bridge, this is a summer tradition rooted in the community. Colorful fireworks light up the night sky above Katsuyama, known as the town of dinosaurs. The beauty of fireworks against the clear night sky is a hallmark of Katsuyama, situated in a mountain-ringed basin. Cap off a day of exploring dinosaurs and history by looking up at the night sky with family.
