Sumiyoshi Taisha NYE Countdown and Hatsumode

Hi. Visiting first time to Osaka this week. We are planning to countdown to New Year and Hatsumode at Sumiyo Taisha and have some questions wrt public transport. We are staying near Umeda.

From Hyperdia, there does not seem to have info on extended train hours. Where can we find this info? Cant seem to find any info on Osaka Metro and Hankai tram sites.

It seems Sumiyotaishitorimae is nearer to the shrine Sumiyo Taisha, as compared to Sumiyotaisha station? What would be the recommended route?

Thanks.

Tram route(transfer at Tennoji) is the easiest way to transfer,
but Midosuji line(subway) and Nankai main line(transfer at Namba) route is the best
bc passengers that can be carried by single car is very small.
Operating after 24:00 is approximately every 15 mins, no worry.

The ticket vending machine area is very crowded usual,
so you should buy a IC card ticket(ICOCA) earlier at ticket vending machine.
