Past events
Meikai Festival | Meikai University (Urayasu Campus)Nov 2 (Sun) – 3 (Mon), Chiba Prefecture
We uphold three guiding principles: “bringing smiles to the local community who visit,” “helping students create their best memory of college life,” and “energizing the university through the campus festival.” We hope the festival will be the bridge that connects these goals. By linking the local community, students, and the university through the festival and creating shared moments, the Campus Festival Executive Committee will take on challenges from multiple angles and create a festival filled with a melody of smiles.
