It has grown out of an event to mourn the large numbers of people lost due to famine and disease during the great famines of the Tempo Era in the first half of the 19th century.

Today\, the festival features a fireworks display of the same number of blasts as the year (Eg 2018 in 2018)\, the usual festival stalls and entertainment such as drumming\, and attracts about 25\,000 people. \nThe fireworks are between 20:35 and 21:00\, but the festival starts at 16:00. \nAccess: 5 minutes from Hongo JR Station on the Sanyo Line.

The last Matsudai ferry departure from Miyajima is at 23:00 and the last JR ferry [Fireworks festival schedule in Japanese] departure at 23:45 \nFor those relying on the train\, a good tip for the return trip on the way back to Hiroshima is to take the first train heading in the opposite direction (Iwakuni bound) one stop so you can grab a seat on the next Hiroshima bound train. \nRead a bitter sweet account of a fireworks day trip to Miyajima from back in 2006 here and get some tips on getting (and keeping) a good spot from Gyoza Fox here and a collection of great photos from 2017 here. \nThe display will go ahead in light rain\, but in the event of stormy weather will be postponed until August 31.
