In addition to the diorama, the festival will host a collection of meticulously designed 1:20 scale models of Shinkansen trains, showcasing the best of Japan's high-speed rail technology. Adding to the experience, participants will have a unique opportunity to interact with real station masters, partaking in the "Station Jobs Experience," which includes dressing up in station master uniforms for photos and creating custom badges that serve as keepsakes from this memorable day.

Another fan-favorite event is the "Little Chef Experience," where young gastronomes can learn from the hotel's skilled pastry chefs to create their very own desserts. Culinary options will also be plentiful, featuring a buffet with delicious children's favorites, such as roast beef (while supplies last), curry, fried chicken, and potato fries. This is truly an event where families can make wonderful memories together while satisfying their appetites.
