Cool Off by the Riverbank and Have Dinner While Securing Your Viewing Spot
About this spot
The Kamo River riverbank, which will be the venue for tonight's fireworks festival, begins to fill gradually with people securing viewing spots as evening approaches. Spread out your takeout dinner and wait for the show to begin while listening to the gentle flow of the river. As the sun sets, the riverbank fills with spectators, so it's recommended to find a comfortable spot during this time.

会場周辺は当日混雑するため、早めに到着して場所を確保するのがおすすめです。荒天時は中止や順延の可能性があるため、当日は主催者の公式発表を確認しましょう。足元が暗いエリアもあるため、小さなライトがあると安心です。
Tips
Restaurants near the venue become crowded after evening, so it's reassuring to prepare meals in advance at places like the roadside station. Have insect repellent spray ready by this time as well.

Approximately 2 hours 15 minutes required. Around sunset, the river surface is bathed in the glow of the setting sun, making it a pleasant time.
