Guida
The Hamasaka Furusato Summer Festival is a major local event held in the Hamasaka area of Shinonsen, Hyogo Prefecture. With approximately 3,000 fireworks launched, the display creates a magical scene where the summer night sky and the beautiful sea become one. This event attracts many tourists every year seeking this unforgettable-moment.
The absolute highlight of this festival is the "Marine Star Mine." Because the fireworks are launched near the Hamasaka Port breakwater, the light reflects off the water's surface, creating an immersive experience as if the sea itself is glowing. The 30-round sequence of large-caliber shells (Shakudama) is particularly intense, offering incredible sound and visual impact. The fast-paced "Hayauchi" fireworks also keep the energy high throughout the show.
For a truly luxurious experience, try watching the display while lying on the sand. Bringing a leisure sheet or beach chair allows you to relax and enjoy the rhythm of the waves while waiting for the grand finale.
The event is scheduled for July 18, 2027. The fireworks are expected to run from 20:00 to 21:00. This one-hour program is a concentrated display of large-caliber shells, star mines, and rapid-fire sequences designed to keep you captivated until the very end.
The venue is the "Hamasaka Prefectural Sun Beach" in Shinonsen, Hyogo Prefecture. The launch site is near the breakwater of Hamasaka Port.
【Access Methods】
Preparation is key to a comfortable experience. Since the main viewing area is the sandy beach, we recommend bringing a leisure sheet or beach chair. Also, the seaside can get breezy and cool at night, so bringing a light jacket or wrap is a smart idea.
If you want to enjoy local food stalls, arrive early to secure your food and drinks before the crowds peak. Since there are many accommodations near Hamasaka Onsen, travelers from far away might consider booking a hotel package for a seamless experience.
