Overview

The Yassa Festival is Mihara's summer centerpiece of citizen dance and parades, and its fireworks event adds a night of light on the harbor. On August 9, 2026, 8,383 shells launch from points off Kaino wharf across a 40-minute program beginning at 20:00. The wharf-side location brings harbor lights and vessel silhouettes into the same view as the bursts — scenery typical of a port town. Come by train: the venue is a 40-minute walk from JR Mihara Station. Drivers reach the area in about 30 minutes from the Mihara-Kui IC on the Sanyo Expressway, but expect road controls near the venue. Free parking holds 360 cars, plus 100 reserved for paid-seat holders; when full, use a paid lot nearby — never park without permission at commercial facilities. No food stalls are planned, so bring your own drinks.
