Film festival
Since FY2021, as a UNESCO Creative City of Gastronomy, we have hosted a film festival to help more people deepen their interest in food by enjoying and learning about fermentation, nature, and the environment through films from Japan and from around the world. From FY2024, the festival has been run as a ticketed event and has been upgraded so that visitors can enjoy not only the films but also talk shows and meals. Vendors at the venue also sell vegetables, processed foo ds, boxed lunches, and more, and attendees enjoy shopping as well.
