Details:
Participation in the Harvest Festival costs per person.
This will allow you entrance into the fairgrounds, and buy you a Harvest Kit.
Each Harvest Kit contains the following: A Harvest Festival Commemorative Wine Glass, A Festival Member’s Badge, and a Bottle Exchange Ticket that can be exchanged for either a Bottle of Wine and Corkscrew, OR a Bottle of Sparkling Grape Juice and a Bottle Stopper.

The Festival will feature continual live music, including: The Lark Quintet (Classical Music), Iwao Furusawa, and Akira Sakata’s Jazz Group.

There will be two large Food Courts where Kanto area chefs will be preparing delicious meals for purchase. A partial list of dishes available includes: Paella, Tacos, Roast Beef, Charcoal-grilled Lamb, Fried Chicken, a Selection of Cheeses, and much, much more.

Transportation:
As parking is extremely limited, and in an effort to prevent guests from driving after imbibing alcohol, we strongly suggest that Festival attendees use public transportation.

We will have shuttle buses running from the Ashikaga train stations (JR line and Tobu line) to the fairgrounds. A one-way ticket to use the shuttle bus will cost \300 per person. From Tokyo, one can reach the Ashikaga-shi Tobu train station by taking the Tobu Line (express or local) from either Asakusa or Kita Senjyu.

We look forward to having you visit us for this year’s harvest.
Sincerely,

The People of Coco Romi Gakuen and Coco Farm and Winery
