Big Sparkle: A Celebration of America's 250th Anniversary with Grand Fireworks from Japan

In commemoration of America's 250th anniversary, the celebrated Japanese fireworks of Omagari will be showcased. Known for their large-scale and intricate firework displays, Omagari's pyrotechnicians are set to honor this milestone. The details of the event, including the time and location, are yet to be announced.

Fireworks, or "Hanabi", hold a special place in Japanese culture, especially during summer festivals known as "Omatsuri." Omagari's firework artists are known nationwide for their large-scale and intricate designs. The featuring of these fireworks at the U.S.'s 250th-anniversary event symbolizes a gesture of friendship and cultural exchange.

In the U.S or the EU, large displays of fireworks are also a tradition during celebrations – be them national holidays, new year's eves, or major sporting events. However, the focus tends to be more on the spectacle itself rather than the artistry involved. Hosting Omagari fireworks showcases not only a foreign spectacle but also introduces external cultural and aesthetic elements to the celebration.
