Why You Should Visit
A seaside fireworks show held at Takenohama Beach in Toyooka City on the northern coast of Hyogo, with roots in the local Kawasage Festival and a history of more than 50 years. On Thursday, July 30, 2026, from around 8:00 PM to 8:50 PM, fireworks rise over the sea just off the beach. Because they launch close to shore, you can enjoy them up close from the sand, with the bursts mirrored on the water. A laid-back summer night by the sea that locals have long cherished.
