Why You Should Visit
Timed to the 2026 MAMA AWARDS at Kyocera Dome Osaka on 20–21 November, HEP FIVE in Umeda hosts the first MAMA FAN FESTA. Gondolas on the building's red Ferris wheel are decorated with MAMA AWARDS artists, and during the ride you can play the performers' songs on your own phone and earphones. There is also a digital stamp rally across 15 points in the building, a photo spot on the 7th floor, and a free original clear file handed out on 14–15 November. A good stop for fans in Osaka for the awards who want more of MAMA around Umeda before or after the show.
