PANDA LOVE Special Event: "Wish for Happiness of Life" on Tanabata Festival -Open to the public for a limited time only in the backyard, and limited Tanabata characters will make an appearance

On July 7, 2025, the anniversary of the start of the "Panda Family Happiness Plan", Adventure World will hold the "PANDA LOVE Tanabata Event: Let's Write Our Wishes to See You Again on TANZAKU (paper strips)". This day is the special anniversary of the start of the "Panda Family Happiness Plan" at Adventure World, and this year, July 7, 2025, which has three "七" (seven) overlapping each other, is also the auspicious "㐂" (joy) day. This year, the three "sevens" will be combined on the seventh day of the seventh month of 2025, which is also an auspicious day. To spend such a special day with our guests, we will hold a participatory event in which visitors can write their wishes for "the happiness of all life" and "to see the giant pandas again" on strips of paper and decorate them on bamboos set up in the park. On the day of the event, the breeding area (backyard) where the pandas have spent their time will be open to the public with a guided tour by the breeding staff. This is a rare opportunity to get a close-up look at the breeding site, which is normally inaccessible to the public.
In addition, "Sumire (Smile)," a giant panda character from the future, will make a special appearance as a "Tanabata Panda" to add a touch of glamour and smiles to the event. Please enjoy this irreplaceable moment to write your thoughts on tanzaku (paper strips) and wish for the happiness of all "lives" connected by hearts.
