for TRUE-ITALIAN-PIZZA lovers:

At the restaurant "La Pizzeria" in Maebashi Sojamachi we are going to set tables outside to have customers enjoy fireworks while eating our delicious brick oven cooked italian pizzas (yeah,I will be there making pizza too!). The restauranst is really close to the fireworks, check the location here on google maps:

If you prefer watching fireworks on the riverside, you can still come say hello before or after!
See you,
Claudio

Hey, just wondered if anyone

Hey, just wondered if anyone is going from the Takasaki area? Only got here on Wednesday but sure Maebashi isn’t far so just wondered if anyone is going as I’ve never got the train in Japan before... I could probably figure that part out myself (I say that now anyway!) but would be good to at least meet up with some people there!

Cheers,

Meg

Take the Ryoumou Line

Take the Ryoumou Line (usually platform 5) from Takasaki station to Maebashi. If you're not sure if the train goes to Maebashi, ask a station person or train conductor.

I'll be there! Coming from

Hello from your GAJET Chubu region representative. Brooke and I have set up a tarp at the baseball fields along the river just north of the Owatari Bridge (where the fireworks are launched from). If you're looking for some good company and a spot to sit, please join us there.
