Access to Ishinomaki from Sendai Station
To participate in the “Reborn-Art Festival”, first you need to go to Sendai by plane or Shinkansen. Then from Sendai Station, you may choose to use the bus or train to continue your trip to Ishinomaki where the festival is taking place. The time schedule and price for both bus and train is mostly the same, but buses come more frequently.
If you choose to ride the bus, take the Miyagi-Kotsu “Miyako” bus bound for Ishinomaki from Sendai-ekimae Eden No. 21 Bus Stop. There are two buses come every hour.
