Tips

荒天時は中止や延期の可能性があるため、当日の開催可否は主催者の公式発表で確認を。終了直後は狭山市駅方面が大混雑するため、フィナーレ後は少し余韻を楽しんでから移動するのがおすすめ。足元が暗い箇所もあるのでスマホのライトで安全に。

Tips

Within walking distance from the Seibu Shinjuku Line's Sayama City Station or Inari-yama Park Station. In summer, choosing shaded spots for rest is recommended. Since restrooms are available, it's wise to use them before heading to the festival venue.
