The Tokyo Olympic torch relay is the earliest in Kyushu and Okinawa, and will be handed over to Oita Prefecture from the 23rd, and will travel to all 18 cities, towns and villages in the prefecture in two days.
On the first day, after the departure ceremony was held at Beppu International Tourism Port in Beppu City, Oita Prefecture, the relay will start at 10 am, and the torch will be connected in nine municipalities including Himeshima Village and Hita City on remote islands.
The torch relay will take thorough measures to prevent the infection of the new coronavirus, and the square of Oita City, which is the goal point on the second day, will be surrounded by a curtain about 3 meters high to avoid crowding.
The Games Organizing Committee and the prefecture limit the number of participants by making advance reservations for ceremonies such as departure ceremonies, and encourage spectators along the road to avoid crowding and support them with applause.
We also want you to support us by live broadcasting delivered on the Internet as much as possible.
