Hawaii is a popular travel destination for Japanese seeking relaxation. However, due to soaring fuel surcharges, rising prices, and a weak yen, many people who wish to visit Hawaii are unable to do so. To fulfill this longing, 'the real Hawaii' is coming entirely to Hankyu Umeda Main Store! Under the theme 'Nā Lei Aloha (Aloha Spirit Connected by Lei),' this year’s fair expands across multiple floors and gathers approximately 110 stores—the largest scale yet. From Japan debut burgers and sweets to fashion and lifestyle goods rooted in Hawaiian tradition, friendly staff and artists from Hawaii will also join, bringing the true atmosphere of Hawaii to life for two unforgettable weeks.
