Exciting Announcement for JAPAN GAMES Aomori Pre-Park

The 公益財団法人日本スポーツ協会 (JSPO) and the 公益財団法人ミズノスポーツ振興財団 are thrilled to announce the upcoming JAPAN GAMES Aomori Pre-Park event, set to take place on September 21, 2025. This event, held at the Kakuhirō Group Super Arena in Aomori City, serves as a significant precursor to the 80th National Sports Festival, which will occur during the Aomori National Sports Festival 2026.

The JAPAN GAMES Aomori Pre-Park aims to enhance opportunities for local residents to engage in sports, promoting excitement ahead of the upcoming National Sports Festival. It aligns with the event's tagline, “Sports are even more fun.” Together with various sports organizations from Aomori, we plan to create an inclusive and memorable experience for all participants.

The event will feature a variety of workshops led by prominent athletes, including Olympians who shined at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. Children in elementary school will have the fantastic opportunity to learn from these athletes through interactive classes. Spots for participation are limited and require prior registration, but we encourage everyone to come and join us for a day of sports, excitement, and community connection.
