About this spot

This traditional fireworks display, held from 7:00 PM on Monday, September 14, 2026, marks its 102nd installment overall. The long-running Masuda Fireworks launch one after another into the autumn night sky, enjoyed amid the distinctive atmosphere unique to Masuda-cho, known as a town of storehouses. Because it's an event that's long been cherished by local residents, a warm, lively spirit fills the venue. The moment when the rapid-fire finale colors the night sky is the climax of this day.

Tips

The event may be canceled or postponed in severe weather, so check the day's status via the organizer's announcement. Roads around the venue get congested afterward, so it's recommended to enjoy the afterglow for a while before heading home. Nights can turn chilly in September, so don't forget a jacket.
