Starting this year, FUELFEST will become the FUELFEST WORLD TOUR, held 11 times a year globally.

The world's largest car festival, "FUELFEST JAPAN 2026," will be held again this year on August 11 (holiday, Mountain Day) at Fuji Speedway. This year marks the commemorative 5th "FUELFEST JAPAN 2026 5th," returning on August 11 (Mountain Day).

The purpose of starting FUELFEST was to support "Reach Out Worldwide" (ROWW), an organization that rushes to provide aid within 24 hours to countries affected by disasters such as earthquakes and tsunamis worldwide.

ROWW was established in 2010 by Paul Walker (the late Paul Walker), and Paul Walker himself, along with over 100 members, would fly to disaster-stricken countries to conduct medical aid and rescue activities. Currently, Paul Walker's real brother, Cody Walker, has taken over and is conducting disaster relief activities worldwide. A portion of FUELFEST JAPAN's sales is also donated to the disaster relief organization ROWW.

Every year, Hollywood stars famous for the 'Fast & Furious' movies visit Japan from the US. Last year, Michelle Rodriguez, known for the popular car action series 'Fast & Furious' (as Letty), and Cody Walker visited! We are excited to see who will visit this year to liven up FUELFEST JAPAN! The opening will feature celebrities arriving in replica vehicles from the 'Fast & Furious' movies, just like in the film! The live atmosphere, as if watching a movie shoot, is the real thrill of FUELFEST JAPAN. Approximately 30,000 visitors can immerse themselves in the world of movies, experiencing the movie's atmosphere, the sound and smell of cars, and the coolness of their driving.

This year's event hours will be from 10 am to 6 pm, with the popular "Parade Run" starting from 4 pm, allowing you to drive on the circuit and experience movie scenes. Highlights include: ★ 2,000 tuned cars on display ★ 200 supercars for driving sessions ★ 100 matchups / 200 cars in 0-200m drag race battles ★ Talk shows by Hollywood stars ★ Movie drift area ★ 1,000 cars in the parade run, and many other contents ★ Over 50 food stalls to satisfy your hunger.
