Celebrate 10 Years of Sutopuri!
To commemorate the tenth anniversary of the popular group Sutopuri, a special campaign titled "Sutopuri x HEP FIVE SPECIAL CAMPAIGN" will take place in Osaka at HEP FIVE from June 22 to July 12, 2026. This campaign introduces an original audio experience created using the unique spatial audio technology, Re:Sense®, within the iconic HEP FIVE Ferris wheel.
Experience Original Audio with Sutopuri's Gel
During the campaign, visitors can enjoy a truly immersive experience featuring original audio exclusively narrated by Gel, one of the members born in the Kansai region. Using just a smartphone and headphones, fans can be transported into a vibrant atmosphere as if Gel were riding alongside them. The 360-degree soundscapes generated by the Re:Sense® technology create a remarkable sense of presence that goes beyond mere listening.
Overview of the Campaign
The campaign combines various elements to enhance the 10th anniversary celebration. From indoor exhibitions and a digital rally to sticker giveaways and unique decorations, HEP FIVE will be a hub of Sutopuri-themed activities. The Ferris wheel stands about 106 meters tall, promising an extraordinary experience thanks to the immersive audio experience brought by Re:Sense® and Gel's guidance. The sound will be so vivid that you’ll feel Gel’s presence right next to you in this intimate space.
Ferris Wheel Operation Hours
The Ferris wheel will be operational daily from 11:00 AM to 10:45 PM, with the last ride at 10:45 PM.
