Directions to the Oyama-cho Kaikan (where the event is held):
Get to Yoyogi-Uehara station [代々木上原], at the west end of the Chiyoda line, or four stops from Shinjuku on the Odakyu line (one stop for the express). Alternatively, go to Higashi-Kitazawa station on the Odakyu line (some Chiyoda trains will go on to H-K).
