Curry, sauna, and fluffy food! A packed event will be held for the first time this summer!
Hokkaido is forecast to have higher than average temperatures this summer. There are more and more midsummer days, and it's getting hotter and hotter every year! We will be holding the Midsummer Sweat Festival 2024, an event with the theme of "Sweat and get through the summer in good health!"
This event is packed with content, including the "IDE5 Produce 6ch Curry Festival," which brings together famous and notable restaurants in Hokkaido, including soup curry, one of Hokkaido's signature delicacies; "HARVIA Sauna Land," where you can enjoy the latest saunas from HARVIA, a sauna and spa brand from Finland, the birthplace of saunas; and "On-chansama Land," where children can get some moderate exercise on the soft play equipment.
The theme is "sweat," but the venue is the cool Sapporo Dome! Whether you want to sweat or cool down, come to the "Sweat Festival."
