Staged on the coast of Mihama town on the Chita Peninsula, this festival fires fireworks low over Mikawa Bay, creating vivid reflections on calm summer waters. The intimate beach setting means spectators sit remarkably close to the launch sites, amplifying both the visual and percussive impact. Local fishing communities organise accompanying bon-odori dancing and seafood market stalls. The event is particularly popular with Nagoya day-trippers seeking a beach-and-fireworks evening excursion.
