The Naniwa Yodogawa Fireworks have been running for 36 years. The festival takes place on the banks of the Yodo River, offering fantastic views of the skyline beneath the display.
Tip: Avoid the crowds and join a tour of both the surrounding area (including the famous Minoh Falls) and the fireworks in the evening.
What happens?
Originally a volunteer event, it is now one of the biggest in the area and has an impressive selection of regular and underwater fireworks. Needless to say, the crowds get pretty huge, so it is advised that you arrive well before 6 p.m. as they say you won’t be able to reach the display area from the station in time after that.
