I have a question:

When visiting the festival, how large is the difference between the celebration on the 17th and 24th?
Is it worth altering the date I'm traveling for it (I am going sometime in July and if I go on the 24th I will be able to visit the festival and fireworks in Osaka + the cosplay convention in Nagoya in the start of August)?

It is explained here:

To summarize:
- the floats on the 24th are fewer and small than on the 24th
- the yoiyama events leading up to the 24th are smaller than the ones leading up to to the 17th
