FAQ

Access

🚃 By Train

3 min walk from JR Sasebo Station. From Sasebo Station Bus Center, take the Saikai Bus (approx. 90 min bound for Hirado Pier), get off at Hiradoguchi Pier Bus Terminal, 3 min walk. 10 min walk from Tabira-Hiradoguchi Station on the Matsuura Railway.

Info for International Visitors

Best arrival time

Arriving 30-45 minutes before the start still leaves room to choose a spot. The venue spans the whole of Taira Port, and with launches from the breakwater the show can be seen from anywhere around the harbour.

Best viewing spots

The shells launch from Taira Port's breakwater, with the illuminated Hirado Bridge as the classic backdrop. Open spots on the seaward side make it easy to fit the bridge and the fireworks in one frame.

With kids

Pick a spot away from the water's edge and keep children within sight. With the festival crowds it is easy to get separated, so agree on a meeting point beforehand.

Photography tips

Phones and cameras are fine; please be considerate with tripods in crowded areas. With the illuminated Hirado Bridge as a backdrop and the sea in frame, you get a scene typical of the harbour at night.

Payment

Food stalls generally take cash, so carry plenty of small bills and coins.
