KidZania Returns to Japan Mobility Show 2025
KidZania, the renowned company specializing in child vocational and social experiences, has announced its return to the Japan Mobility Show 2025 (JMS 2025) with an innovative program titled "Out of KidZania in JMS 2025." This exciting initiative will run from October 31 to November 9, 2025, at Tokyo Big Sight in Koto, Tokyo. Collaborating with the Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association (JAMA), KidZania aims to provide children with enriching experiences in various mobility-related careers.
This marks the third collaboration between "Out of KidZania" and JAMA, following successful events at the Tokyo Motor Show 2019 and the Japan Mobility Show 2023. During these past events, thousands of children participated — around 10,000 in TMS 2019 and approximately 14,000 in JMS 2023 — exploring and engaging in diverse programs curated by leading automobile manufacturers and related companies.
In JMS 2025, nine automobile manufacturers and related businesses will provide a range of unique programs designed especially for children, sparking their curiosity about the world of mobility. These programs primarily target elementary school students, specifically those in grades one through six, while also including free, no-reservation programs for preschoolers aged three and above, allowing younger children to experience automotive-related activities.
KCJ GROUP, the parent company of KidZania, is committed to creating opportunities through the "Out of KidZania in JMS 2025," encouraging children to nurture their interests and aspirations related to the movement of people, goods, and ideas. The event not only focuses on educational experiences but also aims to inspire children’s dreams and curiosity about societal roles and responsibilities.
