Friday 2nd July - Sunday 4th
On Arrival
At the Entry Point into the venue, you'll be asked to sign a Personal Liability form: reminding you to take care of yourself and to make you aware of our event entry rules. We'll also be asking you to wear an event bracelet around your wrist. This saves our security staff asking you to show your ticket every 5 minutes! Should you not be wearing your event bracelet, then please be prepared to be asked a million times to prove your ticket payment!! Obviously, if you have no proof of payment then you'll be asked to leave the premises. Thank you for your co-operation.
Getting there
The San In Beach Party is at Kozomi Beach near Tottori-shi in Tottori prefecture. Kozomi Beach is approximately 10km west of Tottori-shi, along the main road in Tottori-ken (Route 9). For those not arriving by their own vehicle and using public transport, then please head for Hogi Station (the 4th train stop west of Tottori-shi / or the 4th stop before Tottori Station if coming from the opposite direction).
You can get to the party by bus, train, or car. If traveling by bus or train, there will be a shuttle bus from Hogi train station

Guests wishing to return to Hogi Station should assemble near the ticket inspection area 10 minutes before the bus is due to leave Kozomi. A departure timetable can be found at the ticket inspection area.

How to Get to Kozomi Beach from Tottori City
In or around Tottori City follow signs for Route 9 in the Yonago direction. Drive past Tottori Airport & continue for a further 10 minutes. Once you exit the first tunnel on this road called Hakuto Tunnel, then immediately down on the right hand side is the PARTY! 50 metres beyond the tunnel exit is the turning for the car park. The turning is directly opposite a gasoline station. If you go through the Mizushiri Tunnel, then you've gone too far!
How to Get to Kozomi Beach from the West
Head towards Tottori City on Route 9. The journey from Kurayoshi City to the PARTY should take less than 1 hour. Once past a small seaside town called Hamamura, you should soon pass through a number of tunnels. They are Sakenotsu Tunnel 1, Sakenotsu Tunnel 2, Mizushiri Tunnel. Once out of the Mizushiri Tunnel, you will pass a small gasoline station on the left and soon after, a larger Idemitsu gasoline station on the right. Directly opposite the second gasoline station on the left is the entrance to the PARTY car park. If you go through the Hakuto Tunnel, then you've gone too far!
