Little Planet, a next-generation kids' theme park with the concept "turning play into learning," is pleased to announce the upcoming summer-only event "Little Planet in Fukui 2026." Hosted by FBC (Fukui Broadcasting Co., Ltd.), the event will take place from Friday, July 3, 2026, to Sunday, August 23, 2026, at Toretas Green Hall in Fukui City.

Following its successful debut last summer, this year's edition in Fukui returns bigger and better with a "dinosaur" theme. While retaining the six popular attractions that blend traditional play—such as sand play and coloring—with cutting-edge digital technology, the 2026 event will feature exciting new dinosaur-themed enhancements across the attractions.

Additionally, three of the attractions will feature a special collaboration with the movie "PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie" (in Japanese: "PAW Patrol The Dino Movie," releasing July 24). Characters from PAW Patrol will appear throughout these attractions, adding even more fun and excitement to the event. Through immersive, hands-on "future play" experiences—where children can see, draw, and touch—Little Planet aims to nurture kids' curiosity and creativity. The event offers families a special, weather-proof summer adventure where everyone can enjoy together, regardless of the weather.
