Del Monte is launching a refreshing experience for fruit lovers with the upcoming event titled "Del Monte Pure Fruit Urban Fruit-Picking". This exciting event, organized by Kikkoman Foods, offers attendees the chance to enjoy 100% pure fruit puree right from the whimsical "Pure Fruit Tree". The event is set to take place from March 19 to March 21, 2026, at Roppongi Hills’ Rooftop Plaza, and the best part? Admission is free and no reservation is needed!
At this vibrant venue, colorful "Pure Fruit Trees" will line the area, allowing guests to pick their own "Pure Fruits" and sample them on the spot. With each bite, participants will be able to taste the essence of fruits, prepared entirely as 100% fruit puree. This initiative aims to remind people of the importance of fruit in a balanced diet, especially since fruit consumption has been declining in Japan, which is far below the health ministry's recommended intake of 200 grams per day.
With the Pure Fruit series, you can easily meet more than half of your daily fruit needs in a convenient squeeze pouch that contains all natural ingredients without any additives. The event is designed to make fruits more approachable, encouraging attendees to incorporate more into their daily meals.
In addition to picking fruits, attendees will encounter fun elements throughout the event such as an interactive lottery attached to the fruit samples, where lucky participants can win vouchers for new products or exclusive experiences. For those wanting to capture their memories, a photo spot inspired by a fruit stand will also be available. Anyone who posts their photos online will receive a special Pure Fruit pack, making it a delightful social experience.
The event spans three days in spring, a perfect time to appreciate nature and fruits together. The Urban Fruit-Picking concept is designed to bridge the connection between city living and a healthy lifestyle, making it easier for everyone to enjoy fruits daily.
After the event at Roppongi, the “Del Monte Pure Fruit Picking Caravan” will move on to three locations in the Kanto region, starting at Shibuya Hikarie and later visiting Chiba and another Tokyo venue. This caravan will continue the unique fruit-picking experience, bringing the joy of fruits to more people across the region.
