Instagrammable at the high school cultural festival! A collection of photo spot ideas that everyone will love (1–10)
Cultural Festival Photo SpotNEW!
https://www.tiktok.com/@clat.studio/video/7379902961901636865Many students want to preserve their cultural festival memories in a special way! For that, we recommend photo spots that are available only during the festival.
In addition to backdrops, set up smartphone stands and LED lights to create a place where anyone can take great photos.
You could include the festival date and slogan, and decorations that pop for social media will likely be a hit.
If possible, prepare a few interchangeable backdrops so you can switch them out based on people’s preferences.
Umbrella flower

An “umbrella flower” is when you string wires between buildings and hang colorful umbrellas from them.
You’ll need plenty of wires and umbrellas, but the more you have, the more stunning the view will be when you look up.
First-time viewers are sure to be moved! You can choose any colors you like for the umbrellas, so making the festival’s theme color the main one is a great idea.
It’s so beautiful that people won’t be able to resist taking photos!
balloon arch

Balloon arches are a common sight at weddings and party venues.
Maybe you’ve wished you could make one easily yourself.
In that case, let me introduce the interlocking balloons sold at the 100-yen shop Seria.
These balloons are designed to be tied together, making it possible to shape them into an arch.
Normally, you would tie balloons to a base structure, but with these, you don’t need one.
Each pack contains 12 balloons, so the cost performance is excellent.
They’re also perfect for times when you have a little budget left over.
Moon Chair
https://www.instagram.com/p/Bctf7N-hc46/Whimsical yet fulfilling a childhood dream, here’s the idea of the “Moon Chair.” You’ve probably seen a scene at least once in fairy tales or children’s anime where a child sits on a crescent moon, right? Even as kids, we knew it wasn’t realistic, but we still longed for it a little.
This project makes that dream of sitting on a crescent moon come true.
Try making the moon out of thin boards or styrofoam.
If you secure it to a school desk, you might be surprised at how easily it comes together!
Face-in-the-hole panel

Face-in-hole panels are now commonly seen not only at tourist spots but also at local shopping malls.
When you spot one, it’s hard to resist poking your face through and snapping a photo, isn’t it? If you’re making a face-in-hole panel for a school festival, using the school’s or the festival’s mascot character—or even modeling it after the teachers—could be a great idea! You might also set up students on a rotating schedule to take photos for visitors, so everyone can join in easily and have fun.
Mermaid Spot
https://www.tiktok.com/@06yn__/video/7282362357722959122How about a mermaid spot where you can take photos that look like you’re underwater? Put blue film over fluorescent lights to create ocean-style lighting, and arrange plenty of balloons to evoke pearls and water bubbles.
It’s also nice to make seaweed using film.
And don’t forget a shell-shaped seat.
For those who want an even more mermaid-like experience, prepare skirt-style mermaid costumes and tiaras.
Sew the costumes from fabric.
It would also be cute if the staff wore costumes like mermaids, dolphins, or turtles.
Lantern decoration
https://www.instagram.com/p/Ctghs8BvpA4/We’d like to introduce a decoration idea using lanterns that’s trending on social media.
This concept involves installing colorful lanterns to create a vibrant atmosphere at the venue.
You can set up a wooden fence and hang the lanterns from it, or if it’s indoors, suspend them from the ceiling or hang them on stretched wires.
Feel free to get creative and tailor the setup to the location and theme.
It may be challenging to gather a large number of lanterns, but if you put LED lights inside, they can also serve as lighting at night.
