Symphonic Starmine is a co-creative live art festival where fireworks and music merge, set on Karasuma Peninsula in Kusatsu City, Shiga Prefecture.

Fireworks synchronize with a wide range of music—from film scores to J-POP—while live performances by Nijiiro Samurai Zuma and Jacob Koller, together with a 1,000-person chorus, illuminate the night sky. Scheduled for May 2026.
