Fukuoka City is the largest city in Kyushu.
If you are coming from Tokyo, it takes 1 hour and 30 minutes to 2 hours by airplane, and if you are coming by Shinkansen, it takes about 5 hours from Tokyo to Hakata by Nozomi.
The Fukuoka/Hakata area has a well-developed bus system, so it's easy to get to the venue if you use the bus, but if you don't mind walking a bit, larger venues can be reached by train by going to the nearest station and walking.
