Every year we choose a theme and hold events based on it, with plenty of food stalls and more. Stage programs with strong parody elements are also highlights. After the Pre-Hachioji Festival, we host the “Walkathon,” a roughly 43 km trek from the Hachioji Campus to the Shinjuku Campus, where participants aim to reach the finish while passing through checkpoints.
Kogakuin University in Shinjuku, Tokyo holds a school festival called the Shinjuku Festival. It draws big crowds every year with popular artist live performances and unique events that make use of Kogakuin’s high-rise campus location, such as “Tetsujin 29-kai,” a time-attack race up the stairs.
