Why You Should Visit

A large-scale night spectacle at Expo '70 Commemorative Park, where about 15,000 fireworks synchronized to music fill the sky beside a three-dimensional drone art show above the Tower of the Sun. Leading pyrotechnicians from the Kansai region create the display, with fireworks spreading panoramically across the seating area. The Hokusetsu Culture Festival and a ramen expo run alongside it at Omatsuri Hiroba. Now in its 5th year, it's a fully reserved, paid-seat event for up to 27,000 people.
