Please refer to the Machi★Asobi official website or the event schedule summary article below for the schedule of events being held. Please note that events held on the main stage generally do not require numbered tickets and admission is on a first-come, first-served basis, so if you arrive just before your desired event starts, you may end up watching from the back.

The location is here, across National Route 318 from Amico, a commercial building in front of the station.
In Aibahama Park, the stage has been set up in the southeast section, leaving the children's playground in the northwest. The main tent, merchandise tents, and food trucks are located around it. The stage entrance is on the southeast side, so it's best to approach from the direction marked 'Shinmachigawa Hikari Promenade' on Google Maps. A large screen will be set up to the right of the stage, making it easy to see even from the back.
Additionally, most, though not all, of the stages will be broadcast live for free on ABEMA.

The location is here. It's located in a park on the east side of the south end of the Shinmachi Bridge, where National Route 438 crosses the Shinmachi River.
The seating is arranged to cover almost 180 degrees of the stage, with the stage itself being a slightly elevated area in the center. One of its distinctive features is that a river is located behind the stage, and sightseeing boats pass by during events. Depending on the event, tables, chairs, and monitors may be set up on the stage. Since people in the seating area are seated, it is easy to view the stage from the back as well. If people in the top row also sit down to watch, more people can enjoy the show, which is even better.
The location is here. It's on the west side of the south end of 'Ryogoku Bridge,' which spans the Shinmachi River where Ryogokubashi Street crosses.
The stage has a roof and is slightly elevated from the park area. There are several benches at the back, but during popular events, people tend to crowd the front, and if you're sitting on a bench, you might only hear the voices.
The 'Amico Dome Stage' was added to the main stage starting with Machi★Asobi Vol.30. It's located here, on the second floor of Amico, a commercial building in front of Tokushima Station.
This is what it looks like in front of the stage. Part of the pedestrian deck is raised a few steps and has a roof installed. Access from the station is excellent.
Awagin Hall is used for closed events with a limited number of attendees. Its location is here.
It is located further northwest from the Aibahama Park Stage.
The hall on the first floor is most often used, but conference rooms on the fourth or fifth floor are also sometimes used. 
This is what the first-floor hall looks like. 
The main venue for 'Machi★Asobi Sauna' is Shinmachigawa Waterfront Park, located around here.
Look for the white tents and black sauna tents spread along the north bank of the Shinmachi River. It's adjacent to the cosplay area.
Details about the inside of the tent can be found in the following article.
Please note that while all talk events and other activities will be held at the sauna located in Shinmachigawa, there is also a sauna on Mount Bizan. It is located next to the pagoda at the summit of Mount Bizan, around where it is marked as 'Mount Bizan Observatory' on Google Maps.
As I walked from the cable car station towards the pagoda, I saw several tents set up.
A sauna is available at the observation deck.
The view from the cold plunge pool is spectacular.
This is a historical building in Tokushima. The bank had moved away, leaving only the building, which was then acquired by the animation production company ufotable. It's located here, just a one-minute walk from Shinmachibashi Higashi Park.
It is planned to be used as a new base of operations in the future, and the interior will be open to the public before renovations are completed at Machi★Asobi Vol.30.
The movie theater operated by ufotable has two theaters and the entrance on the first floor, making a total of three locations that serve as event venues. The location is here, in the Higashi-Shinmachi shopping street.
Past Awa Odori posters are displayed at the entrance of the movie theater.
Please note that events held in Theater 1 and Theater 2 of the movie theater generally require a numbered ticket distributed in advance to participate. For details on the timing and location of ticket distribution, whether a one-day pass is required, and fees for paid events, please refer to the page below.

In addition, many shops will be set up in vacant store spaces in shopping streets and other areas. This is what Higashi-Shinmachi Shopping Street looks like.
Twelve booths will also be set up in the special event space on the 4th floor of Amico.
I heard that a mobile photo studio and a weapons shop will also be there.
Poppo-gai, a shopping street near Tokushima Station, is also one of the venues.
Exhibitions, game demos, and other events are being planned.
