Local Transit
JR Iida Line Ichida Station, about 5 minutes on foot from the firing area. On the festival day temporary trains run from JR Ina-Ohshima Station and JR Iida Station.

Lodging Strategy
Stay in the Takamori or Iida area - the display is a single evening event reached by a rural railway line, and the organiser publishes no shuttle from the Shinkansen station, so a base in central Tokyo is not practical for the same night
English Access
The display is reachable from JR Ichida Station on foot, about 5 minutes. The organiser publishes the traffic rules and the access map in Japanese only; the 2025 traffic-control map is posted on the national fireworks database.
Cash Required
Yes for the food stalls on the festival ground - the 商工会うまいもの横丁 food street runs alongside the display
Best Arrival
Arrive before 18:00 - the night stalls and attractions open at 18:00 and the temporary trains leave Ina-Ohshima and Iida in the afternoon, so the Ichida Station area fills up early
