Bus: Kawaguchiko to Fuji Shibazakura Festival

Hi folks,

After checking the website of Fuji Shibazakura Festival and Japan-Guides, I've got to know that there is a special bus from Kawaguchiko to the festival location, but I have some questions:

1. Is there anywhere to show up the timeline of bus from Kawaguchiko to the festival location? Is it necessary to reserve the bus in advance (or possible?)?. It seems to be we will reach Kawaguchiko around 13:00.

2. We plan to go to the festival on 20-Apr-2015. The last year, the event started from 19-Apr-2014, could you have any information regarding this for 2015? Is it OK for 20-Apr this year?

Thanks a lot.

The event schedule for this year is not out yet. Monitor the following webpages for update information.
