It started in 2011, when the Great East Japan Earthquake occurred, mainly in Iwate Prefecture, and people all over the country (even at home) lit up sparklers at the same time to send them to the people who have become stars, and to remember the disaster experience, I will continue to tell this story even to children who have never experienced it. |

| 7-Overview |
We were able to hold a sparkler fireworks night again this year ☆彡 4 years since the heavy rains of 2018... From the participants... I still remember that day clearly. The light of candles and sparklers soothed me. Some people have said they would like to participate from the preparation stage next year★ I'm glad that a lot of media people came this time, and that Sparklers Night will be more widely connected. Summer is still in full swing, so why not spend some time relaxing and thinking about your loved ones around sparklers? |
