2025 Osaka Kansai Expo
Reasons to visit

Osaka Kansai Expo held in Osaka Yumeshima is not just about viewing exhibitions, but also about sharing ideas and having a meaningful time thinking about the future! In addition, we hope you will visit Osaka Kansai Expo, which is a valuable opportunity to share technologies and gain diverse knowledge from around the world to solve problems that we all need to solve, such as sustainable development.

Held once every five years, Expo is a meaningful event to be enjoyed during your trip to Osaka, Japan.

Another attraction, the country pavilions

One of the things to see is the pavilions, exhibition facilities where the 150 or so countries and regions participating in the 2025 Osaka Kansai Expo introduce their unique cultures and technologies. It is an opportunity to experience the cultures of various countries and regions that are not easily accessible, such as Korea, the United States, Italy, Lithuania, and Rwanda, so I recommend that you visit and see it with your own eyes.

Benefits of purchasing a set ticket

Due to the Osaka Expo, accommodation costs in the Osaka area are rising overall. Therefore, we recommend using a nearby city with relatively stable accommodation conditions as a base and traveling to Osaka Expo by Shinkansen or express train! This way, you can save on accommodation costs while visiting Osaka Expo and traveling to nearby areas.

Kansai Hiroshima Pass

The Kansai-Hiroshima Pass allows you to freely travel to various cities including Hiroshima, Kyoto, Osaka, Kobe, Nara, Kansai Airport, Himeji, Wakayama, Okayama, Kurashiki, Onomichi, Miyazawa, and Iwakuni for 5 days, so you can conveniently visit major tourist spots and fully experience the charms of Kansai and its surrounding areas.
