A large fireworks festival said to be the biggest in the Hokuriku region. Set against the backdrop of Mikuni Sunset Beach, approximately 15,000 fireworks, including 2-shaku shells, are launched. Musical fireworks and starmines bloom in magnificent splendor, and among them, the underwater fireworks thrown directly into the sea from boats by pyrotechnicians have become a signature of the Mikuni Fireworks Festival.
