・Kashiwazaki Fireworks Display

The Kashiwazaki Fireworks Festival is known as one of the "Three Great Fireworks Festivals in Echigo", along with the Nagaoka Fireworks and the Kabe Fireworks. It is held on July 26 every year. Because the Kashiwazaki fireworks are released on the sea, it is also known as the "Kashiwazaki of the Sea"! The long history of the Kashiwazaki Fireworks can be traced back to the end of the Edo period. It is not only a representative event in the hearts of local residents, but also attracts more than 200,000 people to enjoy it every year. The biggest feature of the Kashiwazaki fireworks is the continuous launch of a large number of fireworks, more than 100 at the same time, and the largest range of more than 1.5 kilometers. Such a spectacular fireworks festival, nothing more! In the 1 hour and 30 minutes long fireworks festival, it is expected that about 15,000 fireworks will be launched, especially the curved fireworks that can only be realized at sea, allowing the flames to draw a beautiful semicircle in the air! And the ultra-wide-area fireworks using more than 600 meters of embankments are a major feature of the Kashiwazaki fireworks! The show will end with 300 fireworks fired continuously for 6 minutes. The touching moments left in your heart as the fireworks explode are something you must keep forever!
