OriginallyPerfect LibertyAlthough it is a religious event of the PL (Church of the PL), since it is a fireworks festival and it is "Summer Festival" in recognition of the general public,Approximately 130,000 people gatherThat's right, so I decided to go to the site and see what it looks like.

The 2012 tournament celebrating the 60th will be held on August 1st and will start with a gun launched at the same time from 150 places at 19:55 and close with the huge Star Mine at 20:45 (fireworks on fire) . This time it is the theme "coloring of the four seasons" expressing early summer fall and winter, and it seems that new work such as "kaleidoscope" which launches white base fireworks in succession is prepared.

In addition, the main road in the surroundings will be closed from 14 o'clock to around 23 o'clock, and a temporary train will be operated from Osaka Abe Noji Bridge in the Kintetsu Minami Osaka Line to Tondabayashi.

The venue is in the Toda Rinbu Shinndo area around the PL Church major headquarters.
