Summary
The 73rd Mamurogawa Festival closes on August 17 with about 2,000 fireworks over the Mamurogawa riverbed, launched between 19:00 and 21:00. Strings of 10-gou shells open huge flowers over the water, alongside message fireworks and music-synced pieces. Earlier in the day, the Mamurogawa Ondo parade and a music festival animate the street by the station.
Overview
The festival day belongs to the whole town: the parade and music festival fill the street by JR Mamurogawa Station before the riverbed takes over as the stage. Strings of 10-gou shells bloom right across the water from the crowd, and the program swings between message fireworks and music-synced pieces over roughly 2,000 shells. Viewing is free with no paid seats, and about 300 free parking spaces sit at the park, community center and town hall — each a short walk from the river.
