Takamatsu's Port Festival Fireworks is one of Kagawa Prefecture's most anticipated summer events, drawing large crowds to the waterfront near Takamatsu Port. Shells are launched from barges on the Seto Inland Sea, creating dramatic reflections on the calm inter-island waters with silhouettes of nearby islands in the background. The display is complemented by live music stages, local udon food stalls, and traditional bon-odori dancing on the pier.
