No. There is no visitor parking on the base or the surrounding state land, and you can only come by paid shuttle bus or motorcycle/bicycle. Visitors are asked not to park at nearby shops or on roads and empty lots around the base. Tour buses can enter the base by application.

In 2025 there were three stops: Ishioka Station East Exit (former Kashima Railway site; round trip ¥2,000, children ¥1,000), Tsuchiura Station East Exit (reservation only, outbound only — the return goes to Ishioka Station; ¥2,700, children ¥1,360) and Oarai Sun Beach multipurpose square (reservation only; ¥3,500, children ¥1,760; you can leave your car at the Sun Beach car park). 2026 services will be announced on the official website and X account.

In 2025 the temporary motorcycle parking was the ring road of the Techno Park northeast of the base: one way, entering from the south, with no stands; when full, riders are sent to the former Shimoyoshikage Elementary School. Bicycles are parked on the west side of Melon Road (Prefectural Route 360) before the main gate.

Local roads around the base are closed to vehicles on the day before and the day of the show (5:00 AM – 4:00 PM in 2024). Roads that stay open, such as the outer prefectural routes, are all no-parking. Residents can get a pass from the Ishioka Police Station traffic division.
