Info for International Visitors

Best arrival time

The fireworks start at 20:30 and last about 10 minutes. Arriving 30–45 minutes ahead still leaves you a choice of viewing spots. Rusutsu Resort is about 90 minutes by car from central Sapporo, and the free Rusutsu shuttle bus from near JR Sapporo Station is reservation-only — book early if you plan to use it.

With kids

The event takes place on a snowy ski slope, so watch your footing and dress for the cold once night falls. Keep children within sight and agree on a meeting point in case anyone gets separated.

Photography tips

Phone and camera photos are fine, but tripods and monopods may be restricted in paid seating — check with staff before setting up. The snow reflects the bursts, so keeping the slope in the lower part of the frame captures the glow too.

Payment

Viewing is free and open to visitors not staying at the resort, but for paid seats buying in advance is the safe bet. For details, check the latest announcements from the organizer, Rusutsu Resort.
