Ebisu-ko, the latest festival with fireworks in Japan of the year.
I would like to introduce one of the events in Nagano that I’m proud of the most, Ebisu-Ko (えびす講).
It’s named after the god”Ebisu-sama”and the festival was initially originated for wishing and being thankful to the harvest, and business to thrive.
The festival has had a long history because the first time was taken place in 1899, and 113 times have been held by 2018.
The festival is noted as the event where only pyrotechnists with skill are allowed to perform. All the pyrotechnists who serve compete with their best works.
Over 10,000 shots of fireworks exploding in the clear sky every year.
Another thing I would like to share with you here is the great number of audiences as you can see those photos.
There are over 400,000 people coming to see this fire works festival, not only from everywhere in Japan, but also from the outside of Japan.
Moreover, over a kilometer line made of more than a hundred food stands are aligned along the event site.
You can find a very wide variety of food.
The night in the late November is really freezing, so warm food help you come alive again!
You should make Nov23rd open this year to see the latest fireworks festival in Japan! 🎇
