Local Transit
JR Miyoshi Station on the Geibi and Fukusen lines. After the show special trains run to Hiroshima (21:10), to Bingo-Ohara (21:00) and to Yoshika (20:50).
Parking
600 paid parking spaces at the Jukaichi riverside park (2,000 yen per car).
Parking Reservation
The paid car park at the Jukaichi riverside park sells out, so booking in advance is advisable.
Lodging Strategy
Stay in Miyoshi City or along the Geibi Line - the display is a single evening event with special trains running only after the show, and the organiser provides no parking beyond the paid riverside car park, so a base in central Tokyo is not practical for the same night
English Access
Walk in to the free viewing areas. The 2026 display ran safety announcements in six languages by foreign residents and was streamed on YouTube, and a free special viewing seat was allocated to disabled visitors on advance reservation.
