It will run from 1:00 PM to 3:30 PM, with all seats general admission and a capacity of 700 people; admission is free. Doors open at 12:30 PM. In addition, as a kickoff event to build excitement for the festival, a departure ceremony for a special train will be held at Tenryu-Futamata Station. At this kickoff event, 50 limited-edition pin badges featuring the same design as the festival's official train headmark will be distributed.
