Held on the 4th Saturday of August every year.
The Omagari Fireworks Competition is without a doubt one of the most spectacular fireworks events in Japan, with over 600,000 people visiting Omagari every year to witness the latest in fireworks technology and proud tradition on display. The best of the best fireworks manufacturers come from all over Japan and battle for the title of ‘Best in Japan’ with an amazing display of light and sound. The fireworks craftsmen put their heart and soul into the creation of their fireworks, making each one by hand. Only at the Omagari Fireworks Competition is it possible to see such a beautiful and original display of colour, style and light. The competition is held on the banks of the beautiful ‘Omonogawa’ River, and with the mountains and late summer stars as a backdrop, is thoroughly recommended.

I'm spoiled because I grew up near Louisville, Kentucky, where they have 'Thunder Over Louisville', the largest annual firework display in the US (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thunder_Over_Louisville). The last one was 26 minutes long... millions of dollars being burnt up right before you eyes.
