Discover New Opportunities at JOIN Migration & Exchange Fair 2025

The JOIN Migration & Exchange Fair 2025 is set to take place on November 22nd and 23rd, 2025, at the Tokyo Big Sight, East Hall 7. This unique event, hosted by the Association for Regional Return and Migration Exchange, aims to address pressing social issues such as declining populations, economic contraction, and the over-concentration of populations in the Tokyo metropolitan area. By connecting prospective migrants with local municipalities and businesses, the fair seeks to promote regional revitalization and community engagement.

This fair is a fantastic opportunity for individuals looking to learn about living in different areas of Japan, including options for work and community engagement. Approximately 300 municipalities from across Japan are expected to showcase their regions, offering attendees the chance to engage directly with local representatives and discover unique opportunities for migration, business ventures, and community involvement.
