True to its home town spirit as Jubilo Iwata's community, it's a fitting finale to a festival where the whole area comes together in excitement. Look up together as a family for the close of a day that began with shopping and a historic stroll.

Tips

Held rain or shine, but cancelled in severe weather, so check the official festival website for whether the event will go ahead. Roads in the area get very congested after the show ends, so it's recommended to enjoy the afterglow for a while before leaving in a staggered manner.

Best time to visit

Time it around the opening at 7:15 PM and fireworks from 7:30 to 8:30 PM. It's reassuring to settle into your spot at least 30 minutes before the start.
