Please give your prior consent to our handling of your personal information, including providing it to transportation companies, in accordance with our "Handling of Personal Information" policy.

In principle, the tour will proceed regardless of rain, however, the fireworks display may be unavoidably canceled or postponed. If the cancellation is decided before the tour departure, the tour will also be canceled, and the full tour price will be refunded. In that case, we will contact the representative by phone to inform them of the cancellation (if you do not receive a cancellation notice, please assume that the tour will depart). Also, the decision to cancel at the site may be made on the day of the event, and in unavoidable circumstances, we may only be able to contact you on the morning of the event. If the fireworks display is canceled or postponed after the tour has departed, we may guide you to an alternative sightseeing spot or return to the meeting place. The return time will be late at night, and may be even later depending on road conditions. Arranging your return home after the last train has left is at your discretion. Please note that we cannot cover the costs of accommodation, meals, taxi fares, etc.

You will need to walk approximately 1,200 meters (about 30 minutes at a leisurely pace) from the designated parking area to the viewing area. Please wear comfortable shoes (athletic shoes) and appropriate attire. As the event will be held at night, please bring a jacket or other warm clothing. While it will be comfortable in short sleeves during the day, it may get too cold from evening to night when the fireworks are held, and you may need a cardigan or hoodie to wear over your clothes. There will be stalls selling food and drinks at the venue, but it is expected to be crowded. We recommend bringing your own drinks and snacks for hydration. Each person will receive one 500 yen regional development voucher on the day of the event, which can be used at the stalls and other shops at the venue. The fireworks will be held rain or shine. If you are concerned about the weather, please be sure to prepare rain gear. It will be very difficult to use an umbrella in the viewing area. Please bring a raincoat in advance.

To avoid local congestion and traffic restrictions, we plan to arrive at the venue significantly earlier than the scheduled launch time. Because we have set the tour departure time with ample buffer time, we may make stops at service areas or roadside stations along the way to adjust the schedule. Also, after arriving at the venue, you will have to wait in your seats before the fireworks display begins (please prepare for heat or cold depending on the weather). Fireworks display time: Approximately 18:00 to 20:00. Some smaller fireworks may be difficult to see.

The Konosu Fireworks Festival, held in Konosu City, Saitama Prefecture, is a fireworks display started by the local Chamber of Commerce Youth Division. It is a fireworks display of such scale that it is not run by the local government or event organizers, but is run solely by the Chamber of Commerce, essentially a volunteer-run event. From public relations activities and ticket sales to negotiations with fireworks companies, setting up on the day of the event, and cleaning up afterward, it is all made possible by the Chamber of Commerce Youth Division's passionate commitment to fireworks. Now, it is a source of pride for the community, and many citizens participate in its operation.

Children aged 0-5 are not permitted to participate.
