Why You Should Visit

A hands-on event where children take the lead, built around "Abeno", a virtual currency usable only at the venue. Kids earn Abeno as wages by completing job experiences, then spend it on other activities — picking up a sense of how money circulates while they play. The line-up is broad: a Blue Impulse flight simulator, trying on ANA uniforms, performances by professional basketball players, and around 30 kinds of workshops. Six days that work well as an indoor outing early in the summer holidays.

NOTE

The "Abeno" virtual currency

Exchange rate: ¥100 = 1 Abeno
