Venue and Map
The main venue for the fireworks festival is the Omoigawa Riverbank (思川河畔) downstream from Kankobashi Bridge (観晃橋), a clear stream flowing through the center of Oyama City (小山市). A key attraction is the close proximity of the launch site to the viewing seats, allowing spectators to experience powerful fireworks such as continuous Shakudama (尺玉 - large shell fireworks) launches, Wide Starmine (ワイドスターマイン - a type of continuous fireworks display), and Niagara Falls (ナイアガラ瀑布 - a waterfall-like fireworks display) up close.
Access
By Train
Access by public transportation is extremely convenient, with the venue located approximately an 8-minute walk from the West Exit of JR Oyama Station (小山駅) on the JR Utsunomiya Line (JR宇都宮線). Significant crowds are expected on the day of the festival, so please allow ample time for your journey. As return trains are also anticipated to be crowded, consider purchasing a round-trip ticket in advance, or using an IC card like Suica or Pasmo, or a JR Pass if applicable, for smoother travel.
By Car
The venue is approximately 30 minutes from the Tohoku Expressway Sano-Fujioka Interchange (東北自動車道佐野藤岡IC). However, extensive traffic regulations will be in effect across Oyama City (小山市) on the day of the event, and severe congestion is expected around the venue. While temporary parking lots will be available, they are highly likely to fill up quickly, so the use of public transportation is strongly recommended.

According to information from 2023, due to traffic regulations, vehicles heading from the Tochigi area (栃木方面) through Oyama City (小山市) towards Yuki/Tokyo (結城・東京方面) were advised to use National Route 50 (国道50号), while vehicles heading towards Utsunomiya (宇都宮方面) were advised to use National Route 4 (国道4号). Detour routes, such as using New National Route 4 (新4号国道) for vehicles traveling from the Utsunomiya area through Oyama City towards Tokyo, will be established, so please check the latest traffic regulation information in advance.
