• The trailer is narrated by Chika Takami, voiced by Anju Inami.
• The trailer BGM is "Previously on Love Live! Sunshine!!", from the Love Live! Sunshine!! anime's 1st season soundtrack, Sailing to the Sunshine, composed by Tatsuya Kato.

Trivia

• The BGM featured in this event are 1 song from Aqours, both vocal and instrumental, 1 song from μ’s, which is instrumental only, and various BGM taken from the Love Live! Sunshine!! anime's 1st season soundtrack, Sailing to the Sunshine, composed by Tatsuya Kato. The list includes:
  • Aozora Jumping Heart – Love Live! Sunshine!! Season 1 Opening Theme – Vocal: Aqours
    • Both the official English translated lyrics and the original Japanese lyrics are shown during the Interlude in the vocal version, depending on the selected language. This excludes the following phrases:
      • Here, now's the time (さあっいまだ, saa imada)
      • Sunshine Story
    • The 1st pre-chorus part can be heard during the 2nd part (Verse 1 - Pre-Chorus 1) of the song, but lyrics can't be shown because it cuts straight into the Instrumental version.
  • Main Theme of Love Live! Sunshine!! – From Sailing To The Sunshine (Love Live! Sunshine!! Season 1 OST)
  • Previously on Love Live! Sunshine!! - From Sailing To The Sunshine (Love Live! Sunshine!! Season 1 OST)

• The Charge Attack and skill names of the Aqours characters are references to song titles and member catchphrases. Same as for the trophies.
• This event is to promote the movie, Love Live! Sunshine!! The School Idol Movie Over The Rainbow, which premiered in theaters on January 4th, 2019 in Japan.
• The in-game flyer for Aqours' concert is a GBF adaptation of the flyer from Love Live! Sunshine!! Season 1.
• Voice actors who have worked with both GBF and Love Live! include Aya Uchida (Andira in GBF, µ's' Kotori Minami in Love Live! School Idol Project) and Nao Taoyama (Lyria in GBF, Yukiho Kosaka – younger sister of µ's leader Honoka – in Love Live! School Idol Project).
• The idol outfits Djeeta and Lyria wear are the same as from Kimi to Boku no Mirai.
  • Io wears a similarly designed idol outfit, but she is not a member of Granblue Fantasy Idol Project.
