About this event
An event where you can enjoy the first fireworks display of the new year along with hatsumode (the first shrine visit of the year) at Hana-no-Iwaya, the oldest shrine in Japan. A countdown is held from New Year's Eve just before the new year, and fireworks are launched into the darkness the moment the new year arrives. This event offers a rare opportunity in Japan to experience fireworks set off right at the moment of welcoming the new year. Because you can enjoy both special experiences of hatsumode and fireworks at once, it creates an unforgettable start to the new year for many worshippers and tourists. The venue is in front of Hana-no-Iwaya Shrine and the Shichirimihama Coast, where the beautiful coastline and sacred shrine atmosphere further enhance the beauty of the fireworks.
