Yuzawa Winter Fireworks
湯沢冬花火
Ski resorts across this snowy Niigata town launch themed fireworks over their slopes on set nights through the winter season.
On set nights each winter, ski resorts in the town of Yuzawa in Niigata Prefecture launch fireworks over their slopes. Each display follows a theme of its own, and the local tourism organization sets them apart from summer fireworks for the clear winter sky behind them. Snow and weather can change the schedule.
