Signature Sequences

  1. 01The signature is the Tadotsu specialty scrambled firing (多度津名物乱れ打ち) - a fast starmine barrage with almost no gap between the shells
  2. 02The whole show lasts about 20 minutes, from 20:00 to 20:20, and the shells burst directly overhead because the firing point is close to the viewing area
  3. 03The display is watched from the port waterfront at Nishihama and Higashihama, free of charge
  4. 04A park-and-ride arrangement with about 70 car spaces and a municipal ground with about 200 spaces is published for the crowd of about 35,000
