This fireworks festival is held in late July at Oarai Sun Beach, a bustling beach with excellent summer access from the heart of the city. The show lights up the night sky with about 3,000 fireworks: big starmines, wide starmines, chains of 10 shakudama fireworks, huge 2-shakudama fireworks, and more. The finale features a cavalcade of starmines set to music-a delightful program bursting with originality.
