Map Notes and copies of written directions:

-The venue is 9km due north of Asahikawa Station.

-The closest corner to the Melody Hall is 9-gou, 9-sen.

Here are Leslie’s directions from last year:   

“To Takasu from the south.

“From Rt. 12 get on the Asahikawa By-Pass.  Once there the left to Takasu that is located between 2 tunnels (I think it is the third left to Takasu option) is the one to take.  Go left along that road for quite a while.  Eventually there will be a blue sign pointing toward Pippu at a stop light.  Take that right.  Go for about 3 or 4 minutes along this road to the 7-11.  Take a right at the 7-11 and go 3 blocks.  Melody Hall will be off to you right kind of behind a big gym. “
