Osaka Gourmet EXPO2025

What is Osaka Gourmet EXPO2025?

During the Edo period, rice and specialty products from all over the country were traded in Osaka, which was called the "Kitchen of Japan".
In 2025, experience a large collection of delicious foods from all over Japan!
This is a food festival that delivers Japanese hospitality to guests from all over the world.

Easy access
from major spots in Osaka

A short walk from Osakajokoen Station on the JR Loop Line, which is about 10 minutes from Osaka Station. From Yumeshima Station, where the Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai venue is located, you can go directly to Morinomiya Station on the Osaka Metro. At this spot, you can enjoy both Osaka Castle Hall and Osaka Castle Museum.

An enjoyable experience
with each visit

Thirty shops will remain open during the event, with additional shops being available for a limited time. Limited-time events such as a ramen festival will be held, so you can encounter new cuisine each time you visit. Check the daily schedules of the performances.

A gourmet festival that you can enjoy
regardless of the weather

The main venue is a huge air-conditioned tent. Approximately 1,000 seats are set up in two tents (MATSURI festival area, UTAGE dining area), so you can enjoy eating, drinking, and performances in a comfortable environment. On a comfortable day or night, enjoy an atmosphere reminiscent of a beer garden, on a terrace seat commanding a view of Osaka Castle!
