Concurrent Event: 'Shikoku Contents Video Festa 2026'

About this event

Organized by the Shikoku Bureau of Telecommunications of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, the "Shikoku Contents Video Festa 2026" is an event honoring outstanding video works that effectively introduce regional charms under the theme of "Energizing Shikoku!". While it has conventionally been held on a rotating basis among the prefectural capitals of the four Shikoku prefectures, this time it will be held for the first time outside a prefectural capital at Theater Mado in Marugame City. Anyone can attend, and admission is free. The event consists of two parts. The first part features a lecture by film director Tomomi Muraguchi titled "Regional Charm Discovered Through Filmmaking" (tentative title), followed by a talk session on the theme of regions, people, and the future connected by video. The second part will feature a screening review of nominated works and an awards ceremony. This festa aims to provide digital video creators with a venue to showcase their work, foster local visual creators, and promote regional attractions through video. Celebrating its 20th edition, the event solicited digital video contents (live-action, animation, CG, etc.), and works that lead to the discovery of or empathy with Shikoku's charm—such as works featuring local communities, hometowns, schools, or using regional landscapes, culture, and events as video material—will be awarded.
