The “National Street-Food Village,” an event bringing together famous street foods from across Japan, will be held for the first time at Hiroshima Gate Park. The venue will recreate a Showa-era atmosphere with lanterns and bare bulbs, and will feature a street-food-village-style space and tented seating.
Stalls serving famous dishes from across Japan are scheduled to line the venue, making this the first food event of its kind to be held in Hiroshima. An old-fashioned street-food-village-style space will be created with lanterns and bare bulbs, providing an environment where visitors can enjoy meals around a table with family and friends.
The event will use a format different from a high-volume stage show, placing greater emphasis on creating the right atmosphere. Through the design of the venue, participants will be offered a setting where conversation naturally emerges as they enjoy their food.
As for the venue and preview information, a 2-day preview event is scheduled to be held at the multipurpose plaza of Takamatsu Symbol Tower in Kagawa Prefecture. The dates for the Hiroshima event will be announced officially at a later date.
Information on related activities for visitors, including daily discount promotions and merchandise sales, is expected to be announced from time to time. Details of advance ticket sales are also scheduled to be posted on the official website.
