A firework display was held in Motobu in the evening of July 13 as part of the Ocean Expo Park Summer Festival 2013. According to the organizer, 42,403 people attended the festival and enjoyed the sky lit up with 10,000 fireworks.

The festival unveiled “Suiku,” a low-bursting firework. Enthralled by the various fireworks, the crowd cheered when they saw the flashes reflected on the sea’s surface. They also enjoyed the “Niagara” fireworks in which the sparks flew 300 meters across the sky.
