Susumu Yoshida, chairman of the Kyoto Art Fireworks Executive Committee, said, "We have held this event twice before, in 2018 and 2019. We had to postpone the event due to the Corona disaster and the reconstruction of the racecourse, but there were many people who wished for the resumption of the event, so we were able to hold the event for the first time in five years this year," he said happily. The music and fireworks will be synchronized for about 60 minutes," said Makoto Fukuda, producer of Kyoto Art Fireworks 2024. The music will be from all genres, including classical, opera, hip-hop, etc. We will select 12 to 13 songs and put them on top of the fireworks. We even calculate the time it takes for the fireworks to go up," he explained. Nana Kamiyama, a student supporter of Kyoto Art Fireworks 2024, said, "I am looking forward to seeing fireworks fused with music. That's why I want to do my best as a student supporter," she said with a smile and enthusiasm.

Mayor Matsui commented, "In terms of combining traditional fireworks with cutting-edge music, the festival incorporates new culture while respecting the old. I am also thrilled that the event will be held from the Yodo area, and that it will be created together with young people from neighborhood associations and students. I hope many people will participate in this project.
