Japan's most prestigious fireworks festival – Omagari Fireworks Festival (National Fireworks Competition)

The Omagari Fireworks Festival, also known as the "National Fireworks Competition", is one of the three major fireworks festivals in Japan. It brings together the country's top fireworks professionals and is recognized as Japan's highest-level and most authoritative fireworks competition event. Along with the Tsuchiura Fireworks Festival, it is the only two festivals in Japan that award the "Prime Minister's Award", which is considered the highest honor in the fireworks industry.

Conference highlights at a glance:

  • Real professional competition

All participating fireworks are launched by their designers themselves, showcasing the ultimate combination of craftsmanship and creativity. This is a rare professional competition that combines "production and launching in one".

  • Unique competition format

Competitive events are divided into two main categories:

【No. 10 Jade Department】

The first shot is "core-in-cutting" – showing exquisite traditional technology with multiple structures such as triple core, quadruple core and even quintuple core.
The second round is "Free Jade" – such as Thousand Wheels, Crown Chrysanthemum, Small Cut, etc., pursuing innovation and artistic beauty, and using the overall harmonious beauty as the basis for scoring.

[Creative Fireworks Department]

First created in Omagari in 1964, this type of fireworks breaks the traditional concept of a circle, adds themes and musical rhythms, blends colors and three-dimensionality, and expresses the creativity and narrative of pyrotechnicians, presenting works full of novelty and artistry every year.

  • Honor Awards

This conference has many government awards including the "Prime Minister's Award", which is only awarded to the pyrotechnician with the best overall evaluation in creating fireworks and No. 10 jade, and is the highest honor in the industry.
