Summary
Kanra's fireworks launch from Fureai-no-Oka, a hilltop park in Gunma, on August 15 — 3,000 shells over roughly 40 minutes from 19:30. The summer festival opens at 16:00 with stalls and events, so the evening flows naturally from fairground to fireworks. Access is easy by car via the Kanra Smart IC (3 minutes), with free temporary parking at the town hall and local elementary schools plus shuttle buses; Joshu-Fukushima Station is a 30-minute walk or 10-minute taxi ride away.
Overview
The elevated park gives every viewer a clear sightline, and the 3,000 shells pack their full program into about 40 minutes after dark. Arrive 30–45 minutes early, and if you are driving, budget the shuttle-bus transfer from the temporary lots — the roads fill up by early evening. The town-hall and school lots are free, and the hilltop setting frames the bursts against the town and surrounding hills, a signature Kanra view for photographers.
