40th Coming of Age Celebration: '40祭'

On March 28, 2026, the Cerulean Tower Tokyu Hotel will gather individuals celebrating their 40th birthday (those born between April 2, 1985, and April 1, 1986) for a remarkable event titled '40祭' (Yonjussai). This unprecedented double coming-of-age ceremony is an invitation to reflect, celebrate, and embark on the next chapter of life alongside classmates from all over the country.

Significance and Purpose of the Double Coming of Age Ceremony

As we reach our 40s, it is not merely a time for reflection on what we have achieved; it marks the beginning of real adventure. The idea isn't just 'halfway through' but embracing that we are at a new starting line for an exciting journey ahead. Each participant comes from different 'villages' representing unique experiences filled with both joy and challenges - all now treasured as invaluable 'gems.' This W Coming of Age Ceremony serves as a space to reconnect us with past companions and introduce us to new friends who we have yet to meet. By sharing our experiences and perspectives, we aim to break down rigid conventions and uncover latent possibilities.

More than just a reunion among familiar faces, the '40祭' aims to connect us with fresh 'friends' and foster an exhilarating environment where we can make the most of our lives ahead. On this exceptional evening, around 500 forty-year-olds will come together to honor one another's lives, stimulate each other, and converse about the future. May this special night serve as a new junction for us to fully enjoy life.
