Autumnfesta Etajima 2025 This October 25th!!

This year’s Autumnfesta Etajima shall once again be held at the Officer Candidate School for the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force in the north of Etajima, a sizeable island off the coast of Ujina Port in Hiroshima City. The main event is the fireworks display, which happens at 5:45 PM, but the festival itself kicks off from 11:00 in the morning with various guest performances throughout the day, including a Hawaiian hula dance group, talk shows, and who can forget marches and symphonic performances by the one and only JMSDF? There will be shuttle buses taking people from downtown Etajima to the venue, so folks visiting from Hiroshima City can still easily make a day trip here!
