The Min-On Concert Association hosted MIN-ON Kids Festa 2025, which took place in three cities—Kanazawa, Tottori, and Ebetsu—and welcomed approximately 4,300 participants.
(September 9, Settsu City, Osaka Prefecture)
The event featured three main programs:
(1) Concerts for Kids, showcasing music from Japan and around the world;
(2) Creative Workshops, where children could make instruments, enjoy dancing, and more; and
(3) a Hands-on Instrument Exhibition offering the chance to try over 30 kinds of ethnic instruments.
These interactive experiences delighted audiences of all ages. Children and parents alike commented that they discovered instruments they had never seen before, were thrilled to be so close to the performers, and hoped the festival would become an annual event.
Through music and shared creativity, the program nurtured curiosity and appreciation for cultural diversity.
Min-On extends its heartfelt appreciation to its sustaining members whose support makes such events possible.
Min-On wishes to thank its sustaining members for making this and other association initiatives possible.
