Summary
The 59th Ono Castle Festival Grand Fireworks open the festival program in Fukui Prefecture's castle town of Ono on August 13, 2026, from 19:30 to 20:30 at the Managawa Nagisa Island. Some 3,000 shells — star-mines, music fireworks and 10-gou jumbos among them — fill the hour, with townsfolk in yukata and homecoming visitors packing the banks and food stalls due to line the venue.
Overview
The opening-night fireworks of the Ono Castle Festival send up about 3,000 shells in 60 minutes over the Managawa, drawing some 40,000 visitors to the riverside island venue. The venue is a 20-minute walk from Echizen-Ono Station, or 40 minutes by car from Fukui IC via Route 158. Free temporary car parks (from 5:30 p.m., around City Hall and elsewhere) exist but no shuttle bus runs, so budget the walk. Riverside spots fill early — arrive about an hour before the start.
