Kisuke Co., Ltd. will host the "Kisuke BOX 25th Anniversary Play Thanksgiving Festival," a special event to commemorate the 25th anniversary of its comprehensive entertainment facility, "Kisuke BOX," on Wednesday, April 29, 2026.
Since its opening in 2001, Kisuke BOX has delivered "play" and "relaxation" to the local community through a variety of experiences, including bowling, hot springs, amusement, dining, and kids' content. This year, as it reaches the significant milestone of its 25th anniversary, the facility will roll out celebratory projects filled with smiles at various locations within the premises, expressing gratitude to its customers who have supported it over the years.
### 25 Years of Walking with the Community: A Commemorative Event to Deliver Gratitude
Kisuke BOX's 25th anniversary is not just a milestone but a testament to the time accumulated together with the local community. It has been cherished by many customers as a place of childhood memories, a familiar leisure spot for families and friends, and a convenient place for daily relaxation and enjoyment.
The "Play Thanksgiving Festival" will transform 25 years of gratitude into "Kisuke-style vibrancy," delivering a special day that can be enjoyed by all generations. It's a unique anniversary event where visitors can encounter different forms of fun at each location as they explore the facility.
### Diverse Anniversary Projects to Enjoy Throughout the Facility
On the day, various events are planned to take place at Mahjong JAO, Kids Park KIT PLAY, Kisuke-no-Yu hot spring, and in the shared indoor spaces.
At JAO, a Mahjong tournament is planned with professional mahjong player Hinaho Takeda (Japan Professional Mahjong League) as a guest. This will be a "serious game of play" that adults can genuinely enjoy, livening up the 25th anniversary.
In front of Kameya on the 1st floor of Kisuke BOX, a mochi pounding event is scheduled with participants including Ehime Pro-Wrestling and Hinaho Takeda (Hina-pu from Suupeas).

Furthermore, also in front of Kameya on the 1st floor, a candy toss event for children up to elementary school age is scheduled. This is a delightful plan for families, expected to fill the venue with smiles.
To conclude, Kisuke-no-Yu will host a heat wave event by Ehime Pro-Wrestling. This will be a "hot spring entertainment" experience, Kisuke-style, delivering a special program that will keep the excitement high until the very end.
### Together with Partners Who Energize the Region
