Tips
In bad weather, the event may be postponed or canceled—check the organizer's official announcement on the day of the event. Right after the finale, the area around Yoshiura Station will be congested, so it's best to linger and savor the moment before heading out. Some areas may be dark, so use your phone's flashlight for safety.
