Kannonike Park Free Plaza (観音池公園 自由広場)

Flow of the course

About this spot

The Kannonike Park Free Plaza (観音池公園自由広場) becomes the main viewing area for the fireworks festival. As evening approaches, visitors start to increase, so to secure a good spot, it's reassuring to arrive on site one hour before the show starts. Make use of the information you scouted out earlier in the day to spread your picnic sheet in a position with a good view of the fireworks. Autumn nights tend to get chilly, so also have your outer layer ready to put on right away.

Tips

Check the day's traffic restrictions and parking conditions in advance through the official announcements from the festival organizer. Restrooms at the venue get crowded, so use them with plenty of time to spare before the show starts. Bringing your own food and drinks is standard, but there may also be food stalls set up at the venue.

Best time to visit

About 45 minutes. As the sun sets, the plaza's atmosphere gradually transforms into that of a festival.
