Impact on the Venue and Conference Operations
There are no safety issues with the venue building, and there was no particular impact on the use of the venue for events on the day of the earthquake.
However, train services operated by JR Kyushu were temporarily suspended, resulting in delays. When traveling to the venue, please check the latest transportation information and allow plenty of time for your journey.
