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。終了直後は周辺道路が大変混雑するため、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 JR Furukawa Station. The summer sun is strong, so take frequent breaks and stay hydrated. On fireworks festival day, it gets crowded from evening onwards, so it's recommended to walk leisurely in early afternoon.
