Approximately 2,000 fireworks from the port waters illuminate the island's night sky

About this spot

Held on August 13, 2026 (Thursday), this fireworks festival takes place on the waters of Katsumoto Port on Iki Island. Approximately 2,000 fireworks burst into the night sky, and the quiet island port town experiences its most vibrant night of the year. Because there are few tall buildings nearby, the fireworks spread across the entire sky in a way unique to island fireworks displays. The night sky show, enjoyed alongside the sound of waves, becomes a special summer memory of a remote island.
