Lodging Strategy
Stay in Nanbu Town or in the Sannohe area - the display is a single Saturday evening event and the venue is a rural park reached by a local railway line, so a base in central Tokyo is not practical for the same night
English Access
Walk in - there is no ticket, no gate check and no reservation. The information is Japanese only, and the organisers ask visitors to follow the venue map published with the festival flyer.
Cash Required
Yes for the food stalls on the festival ground; the fireworks display itself is free
Best Arrival
Arrive in the early afternoon - the gates open at 13:00 and the taiko and folk-dance programme starts at 15:00, so the park fills up well before the 20:15 firing
