Craft Beer and World Food Culture Converge in Umeda

Music, Dance, and Culture Cross Borders

On the stage within the venue, performances by popular Japanese artists and DJs, as well as traditional dances, folk music, and dance performances from around the world, are planned.

This will create a space for exchange where people can connect beyond national and cultural differences.

The venue will also feature original Bakushokuonsai stamps and original photo booths.

Visitors can engage with culture and history while capturing special memories of the day in photographs.

Over 180,000 Visitors at Past Events

Bakushokuonsai has been held repeatedly as an international exchange event blending craft beer, food, music, and culture, gaining support from many visitors.

The March 2026 event attracted over 40,000 visitors, and the subsequent May 2026 event attracted over 140,000 visitors over six days. The cumulative total for both events exceeded 180,000 visitors.

Through international cuisine, craft beer, live music, and cultural experience content, it continues to grow as a representative international exchange event in Osaka, creating opportunities for a wide range of generations to encounter world cultures.

Carrying the International Exchange Born from the Expo into the Future

Bakushokuonsai is an urban festival that connects with the world through craft beer, food, music, and culture.

It is held as a new international exchange event that can only be realized in Osaka, where exchanges with countries around the world have expanded.

Aiming not to be a one-time event, but a place where world cultures can be felt close at hand and human connections are fostered, we will continue to strive for its ongoing holding.
