◆ Watch the “Kashiwazaki Matsuri Sea Grand Fireworks Festival” from Reserved Paid Seats ◆
The Kashiwazaki Fireworks Festival is counted among the “Three Great Fireworks Festivals of Echigo,” alongside Nagaoka (river) and Katakai (mountain). Each year, approximately 15,000 fireworks light up the night sky in a breathtaking display over the vast Sea of Japan.
The true charm of the Kashiwazaki Fireworks lies in its grand scale, set against the dramatic backdrop of the Sea of Japan. Don’t miss the spectacular “Underwater Star Mine,” where fireworks are launched from the sea and bloom above the water, and the awe-inspiring simultaneous launch of 100 giant shells. The sheer beauty and scale of the show are unforgettable—many visitors say, “Kashiwazaki is simply stunning!” See it for yourself!
