Dozens of exhibitors from Tokyo, Osaka, Aomori, Tokushima, Kagawa,and other regions of Japan, along with local businesses in Macau, will offer a diverse range of Japanese delights, from whimsically themed snacks to time-honored classics and contemporary fare. A centerpiece attraction is the sake vending machine, offering over 50 varieties of Japanese sake. During the festival, Hotel Okura Macau will host a limited-time pop-up store, featuring Japanese specialties such as Nagasaki castella cakes from Nagomi, Kyoto craft beer, and selected sake. As a special treat, patrons purchasing any two items from the pop-up store can savor a cup of Japanese charcoal-roasted coffee for a nominal fee of just MOP 1 dollar. Complementing these epicurean indulgences are interactive games and cultural performances. Adding to the festive ambiance, endearing mascots adorned in traditional Japanese attire will grace the event, offering photo opportunities for guests.
