About this spot
Held on August 29, 2026 (Saturday), this fireworks festival takes the Kawauchi River flowing through the mountains as its stage. Approximately 5,000 fireworks illuminate the river's surface, and because the venue is surrounded by mountains, the sound reverberates and reaches deep into your core, creating an impressive experience. It's a fireworks festival characteristic of Yuusui Town, blessed with spring water and hot springs, integrated with nature. After watching the finale, head back home with summer memories to cherish with your family.
