The second day showcases the \"Taru Niwaga Parade,\" where various groups march with floats and portable shrines loaded with sake barrels, accompanied by spirited shouts. The final day features the \"Great Fireworks Festival by the Sea,\" held at the coastal park area of the central seaside town. Approximately 16,000 fireworks, including wide star mines launched from the breakwater, underwater sky star mines spreading over the sea surface, and a simultaneous launch of 100 large shells, captivate the audience.
