Susa Bay Grand Fireworks Festival — Susa's fireworks with explosion sounds echoing through the mountains are incredibly powerful
Susa Bay's Great Fireworks Display lights up Susa Fishing Port in Hagi, Yamaguchi, on July 28, 2026 — about 2,000 shells over 30 minutes from 20:00. The bay, ringed by mountains on three sides, echoes each burst off the ridges, a signature of this port-side event. Around 13,000 visitors are expected, and the venue sits just a 5-minute walk from JR Susa Station.
Susa Bay opens onto the sea north of Hagi, and its innermost reach — Susa Fishing Port — hosts the summer's big display. On July 28, 2026, about 2,000 shells go up between 20:00 and 20:30, spreading light across the water and mountain walls that frame the bay. The harbor setting gives the fireworks a distinctly seaside character. JR Susa Station is a 5-minute walk from the venue. Drivers come on the prefecture's trunk roads — about 70 minutes from Kano IC or 90 minutes from Mine IC on the Chugoku Expressway — with around 1,000 free parking spaces planned. Being a small bay-side town, local shops and restaurants may be crowded on the night. Details are available from the organizer's announcements and the Susa tourism site's dedicated event page.
