The Hisai Fireworks Festival, a beloved summer tradition in Tsu City, Mie Prefecture, is held at the JGSDF Hisai Garrison Grounds. In 2026, it marks the 65th milestone edition commemorating the 20th anniversary of Tsu City's merger. A major feature is its urban setting, with the viewing area and launch site being extremely close, allowing spectators to experience large-scale blooms unfolding overhead with an immersive intensity that barely fits within the field of vision. In 2026, the launch count expands from last year's 4,000 to over 5,000 shells, and under the theme 'Singable Chorus Fireworks,' a new nighttime narrative unfolds through the integration of fireworks, music, and projector effects.
