Ocean Expo Park on the Motobu Peninsula hosts special summer evening events that include hanabi displays over the park's coastal grounds, best viewed from the Emerald Beach area or the plaza in front of the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium building (exterior viewing). The fireworks are launched from the beach and reflect off the turquoise waters of the East China Sea. These evening events often include Ryukyuan dance performances and traditional Okinawan music as support programming. The park's extensive ocean views make it one of the most scenic fireworks backdrops in the prefecture.
