Memory-Tech Tsukuba Co., Ltd., Interactive Content Division, Sunhoseki (Headquarters: Chikusei City, Ibaraki Prefecture; CEO: Shinya Suzuki), will host the POPUP event "Sunhoseki Fair" from Wednesday, April 29 (Holiday) to Wednesday, May 6 (Holiday), 2026. The venue will be a special space near the Big Wonder escalator on the 3rd floor of Seven Park Ario Kashiwa (Kashiwa City, Chiba Prefecture).
This limited-time event will feature a wide range of Sunhoseki's signature exciting items, including affordable and cute accessories, stationery, and small goods. Furthermore, as a special project focusing on the popular original character "Hoppe-chan," the event will offer rare, venue-exclusive Hoppe-chan items for sale and the "Hoppe-chan Squeeze Experience," where participants can create their own one-of-a-kind original character. The event is designed as an experiential POPUP that people of all ages, from children to adults, can enjoy.
Recreating the Excitement Once Felt on the Back Covers of Magazines
Sunhoseki has brought the joy of choosing and collecting to many children and teens through its accessories, stationery, and goods. Many people cherish memories of their hearts dancing while looking at products on the back covers of comic magazines. This "Sunhoseki Fair" is an event that brings that nostalgic thrill back as a real-life experience for the modern era.
In addition to cute items that make you want to pick them up, many variations of the popular character "Hoppe-chan," a symbol of Sunhoseki, will appear. It offers a sense of nostalgia for the generation that grew up with it and fresh fun for children encountering it for the first time.
Special Project: Encounter Rare Venue-Exclusive Hoppe-chan
The event plans to feature rare Hoppe-chan figures that can only be obtained at the venue. Because "Hoppe-chan" is highly collectible, the chance to find limited items is a significant draw for fans. By emphasizing the special feeling of "meeting items because you go to the venue" and "getting items only available on-site," the event aims to increase the motivation for visitation.
Featured Project: "Hoppe-chan Squeeze Experience"
The highlight of the event is the "Hoppe-chan Squeeze Experience." This is experiential content where participants can create their own unique Hoppe-chan by squeezing it with their own hands. The feature of being able to enjoy the process of making it, rather than just buying a finished product, makes it ideal for family participation and creating memories during Golden Week. This interactive fun fosters a deeper affection for the character and encourages sharing on social media.
A Limited-Time Event Meeting Golden Week Outing Demand
The event period is from April 29 to May 6, 2026, coinciding with the Golden Week holidays. By holding the event during a time when visitors, primarily families, increase, it contributes to promoting circulation within the commercial facility and improving visitor satisfaction as an event where shopping, leisure, and experience can be enjoyed all at once. For children and teens seeking cuteness, as well as for the adult generation who were once familiar with Sunhoseki, this is a highly anticipated POPUP where nostalgia and novelty intersect.
