November 7 (Sat) & 8 (Sun) @ Expo Commemoration Park Momijigawa Lawn Plaza
"Takuro Expo," a major event hosted by Takuro, the champions of M-1 Grand Prix 2025, has been decided to be held on November 7 (Sat) and 8 (Sun) at the Momijigawa Lawn Plaza in Expo Commemoration Park.
The "Takuro Expo," which was announced as the use of the M-1 Grand Prix 2025 prize money, will finally be realized. With the theme "Inochi Waratte, Mata Ashita" (Live Laughing, Until Tomorrow Again), the event will feature not only comedy stages by popular comedians such as Mirror Trees and Dondecorute, but also "pavilions" essential to an expo, and the "Expo Bon Odori" that was popular at the Osaka-Kansai Expo, with "Bon Odori God 4" Razor Ramon and Fujisaki Market also appearing.
Furthermore, original collaboration merchandise with "Myakku," the official character of the Osaka-Kansai Expo, will also be released.

MESSAGE
To you who are living today to the fullest.
We hope you will laugh and enjoy yourselves from the bottom of your hearts, and together with your smiles, we will weave a new tomorrow where "life shines."
<Akagi>
I loved the Osaka-Kansai Expo so much that I went many times. When I was asked how I would use the prize money after winning M-1, I casually said, "I want to hold an expo again," and now we're going to hold something called "Takuro Expo." This is something only possible because I won.
I'm truly glad I won in the expo year of 2025.
I hope to recreate even a fraction of the peaceful atmosphere of the expo.
<Kimura Band>

I will give my all to make Takuro Expo a success!! So, I have a request for everyone!! Please come to the venue and enjoy yourselves!! Let's share this dream time together!!!!
