Watch 7,000 fireworks illuminate the sky above Ongagawa River estuary. This is Kyushu’s sixth most popular fireworks festival – 80,000 visited last year. There is free parking available (5,000 spots), and a shuttle bus runs from the free parking lot (¥100). To get to the venue by public transport, travel to JR Orio Sta., then take a 25-minute bus ride to Yamaga Yubinkyoku-mae (it is a 5-minute walk from there). If you’re travelling by car, it is a 40-minute car ride along Prefectural Road 27 from Kurate IC.
