You can see them from Naruohama.

Apparently, if you do your best with a telephoto lens, you can take photos like this even from Naruohama. This one was taken by Kuroki-san.

A spectacular fireworks display called “JAPAN FIREWORKS EXPO,” featuring pyrotechnicians from all over Japan, will be launched from Yumeshima, the site of the Osaka-Kansai Expo.
Last time, the fireworks were also visible on the live camera from Baycom, one of the Nishitsu Friends.
You might also be able to see the drone show, though it’ll look tiny
It looks like there will be drone shows before and after the fireworks.
The event dates are like this:
- June 28 (Sat)(← today)
- July 21 (Mon)
- July 23 (Wed)
- August 23 (Sat)
- September 27 (Sat)
- October 8 (Wed)
The launch time hasn’t been announced, but there’s a “Fireworks Cruise” where you can watch from a boat, and it says the boat arrives at Yumeshima at 19:30 and the fireworks end at 20:00. Last time, they started launching at around 19:55. We’ll see what happens today. By the way, boat reservations open three days in advance, so you may be able to book for the next one.
Lastly
On the seaside, you should be able to see them from Nishinomiyahama as well as Naruohama, and on the mountain side, they were visible from Koyoen too. If you’re nearby, why not pop over and take a quick look?
