The Lake Biwa Fireworks Festival will be held on Thursday, August 8th, in the waters off the coast of Shiga Prefecture's Otsu Port. It is a very popular fireworks festival that attracts 350,000 people from inside and outside the prefecture, and all paid seats are sold out. Since the free area has been greatly reduced, we recommend purchasing a paid seat ticket as it is expected to be very crowded.
