<jats:title>ABSTRACT</jats:title> <jats:p>Recent observations have successfully detected UV-bright and infrared-bright galaxies in the epoch of reionization. However, the origin of their radiative properties has not been understood yet. Combining cosmological hydrodynamic simulations and radiative transfer calculations, we present predictions of multiwavelength radiative properties of the first galaxies at z ∼ 6–15. Using zoom-in initial conditions, we investigate three massive galaxies and their satellites in different environment and halo masses at z = 6: $M_{\rm h}= 2.4\times 10^{10}\,$, $1.6\times 10^{11}\, $, and $0.7\times 10^{12}\, {\rm M_{\odot }}$. We find that most of the gas and dust are ejected from star-forming regions by supernova feedback, which allows the UV photons to escape. We show that the peak of the spectral energy distribution (SED) rapidly changes between UV and infrared wavelengths on a time-scale of ∼ 100 Myr due to intermittent star formation and feedback, and the escape fraction of UV photons fluctuates in the range of 0.2–0.8 at z &lt; 10 with a time-averaged value of 0.3. When dusty gas covers the star-forming regions, the galaxies become bright in the observed-frame sub-millimeter wavelengths. We predict the detectability of high-z galaxies with the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA). For a sensitivity limit of $0.1\, {\rm mJy}$ at $850\, {\rm \mu m}$, the detection probability of galaxies in haloes $M_{\rm h}\gtrsim 10^{11}\, \, {\rm M_{\odot }}$ at z ≲ 7 exceeds fifty per cent. We argue that supernova feedback can produce the observed diversity of SEDs for high-z galaxies.</jats:p>
