At the Osaka Sangyo University campus festival, it seems they’re planning not only music and comedy live shows but also a full-fledged professional wrestling event. Since there aren’t many chances to see real pro wrestling, it sounds like a very exciting event. Moreover, this year they’re organizing Gakusai Houdai, a collaborative project with the circuit festival Miho-dai (Mihoudai)/Mihoudai (Mihoudai) [“Mihoudai” literally means “all-you-can-see”], making it a campus festival that band lovers won’t want to miss.
