【 Overview of the Renewal 】

From "Higashi Betsuin Hall" to "Higashi Betsuin Terrace Hall". Three meanings embedded in the name.

  • Brightly illuminating (terasu) the daily life and future of the local community through various events and interactions

  • A Terrace where many people casually gather beyond genres

  • "Tera's" representing a temple's hall (utilizing the historical and cultural assets of the temple to meet modern needs)

    Key Points of the Renovation

  • The interior around the stage has been revamped with a black base

  • A wide range of productions are now possible with the introduction of the latest acoustic, lighting, and visual equipment

  • The audience seats (movable) have been renewed. Flexible for multi-purpose use such as exhibitions and art shows, not just stage lives and lectures, through removal and rearrangement.
