This day-long fair is designed for individuals interested in exploring their connection to Akita City, whether they're considering relocating or simply curious about the region.

A Gateway to the Experience of Akita
Choosing to move is a significant decision that requires careful thought. The goal of this event is to introduce Akita City to visitors, allowing them to visit and inspire a desire to return. When the idea of relocating arises in one's life, we hope the warmth of Akita's landscapes and its people will come to mind. This aspiration is central to the event. Those who have actually moved to Akita City and are now thriving in their new homes will also be present, sharing their insights about life, child-rearing, work, and community interactions.
