Hopefully, they’ll hold off until the rest of us can get back into the country.

I hope so.
Our local fireworks display was supposed to go ahead this coming weekend, but the bed-wetters in the city council campaigned successfully for its cancellation again.
Instead of stopping the event, these nervous Nellies should just let people decide for themselves whether they want to attend. People who are afraid can stay home, and everyone who wants to go can enjoy the night.

Japanese fireworks and festivals are the best in the world! Hurry up and open the borders so others can enjoy them as well!

Good to see the displays coming back. Friends have been sending videos of their ones.
Ibaraki is hosting a massive 90-minute fireworks show in September 2022. Non-stop fireworks for one and a half hours –

Good luck with that.
some University in my area caught on fire from the “limited” fireworks shows they put on this year.
way to bring back a 2 year hiatus tradition guys.

This year there are also fewer Japanese, minus 600,000. Foreigners minus 100,000. Covid probably. Or maybe yellow troll disease.

Japan definitely has some of the most spectacular pyrotechnics displays ive ever viewed.
Try Las Fallas in Valencia....
Yes they are goof here but plenty of other places have great disp[ays too.

Hardly any large fireworks festivals have been scheduled for Tokyo this year, but a few minutes north of Tokyo’s Kita-ku, across the Arakawa River, the city of Kawaguchi will be sending nearly 10,000 fireworks into the air on the evening of 5 November. No sweat, no mosquitoes, just a cozy autumn evening.

China just put on a fireworks show!!! At least they can take credit for inventing something instead of stealing it and that is gunpowder.

"This year, however, has seen events go ahead with infection prevention measures in prefectures including Hokkaido, Akita, Niigata and Shizuoka."
What prevention measures? Places where they are holding festivals are more packed then ever, which is one reason the rate of infections shot up exponentially.
