Info for International Visitors

Best arrival time

Be at the ground 30–45 minutes before the start (around 7:45–8 p.m.). Bon dancing and the rest of the festival program run from early evening, so an early arrival lets you enjoy the whole event. Free parking covers 250 spaces; JR Kurodasho Station is a 20-minute walk away.

With kids

Bon dancing and the lucky draw keep children busy all evening. The fireworks ring out loudly — pack ear protection for little ones. On busy nights, bright clothing and a set meeting point help keep everyone together.

Photography tips

The open ground makes wide, sky-heavy compositions easy; a bon-dancing lantern in the foreground gives the shot a distinctly Kurodasho feel.

Payment

Viewing is free with no paid seats. Stalls and the lucky draw generally take cash — carry plenty of coins. Parking: 250 spaces, free.
