Kamogawa Sea World Celebrates Chiba Residents
Kamogawa Sea World, located in Chiba, is offering exclusive discounts and events for local residents to express gratitude during the "Chiba Residents Appreciation Month" in June 2026. From June 1st to June 30th, residents of Chiba can enjoy reduced admission fees, culminating in a special event on June 15th, known as "Chiba Residents Day."
This month-long celebration indicates a special price for admission, aimed at appreciating the support from the local community. During this time, children under middle school age visiting with their families will receive a unique voucher for donuts, allowing them to redeem a treat during their visit. It’s a great opportunity for families to explore the wonders of marine life and enjoy a fun day out at the aquarium.
Special Events on Chiba Residents Day
On June 15th, children in Chiba who are in middle school or younger can enter the aquarium FREE of charge. Adults living in Chiba will benefit from discounted admission prices as well. On this particular day, a highlight event will be the “Madai Release Experience,” where 100 lucky children (aged 4 to middle school) will have the chance to release sea bream (Madai), a cherished fish in Chiba, into the sea off the coast right in front of Kamogawa Sea World. Participants will be selected via a lottery from applicants submitted between May 18 and May 25.
This kind of engagement fosters a deeper appreciation for the local environment and marine creatures. It's an ideal way for families and friends to make meaningful memories together.
