Osaka’s six-month-long world exposition is nearing its closing date, with only five days left until the final day. And it’s going out with a bang – or quite a few bangs, actually. The organisers, in a bid to show appreciation for all visitors as well as the entire staff, who together helped realise a largely successful Expo, are hosting a daily fireworks show from the southern side of the Grand Ring.

The display, which is expected to last around 5 minutes per session, will begin daily at 6.35pm. Be sure to secure a spot on the roof of the Grand Ring for the best view. What’s more, the displays on Wednesday October 8 as well as from October 11 to 13 will be larger in scale than on the other days. For more information, visit the Expo’s official news blog. And if you’d like to reserve special paid seating (such as viewing from a cruise), check out this dedicated site.
