SKLV Autumn Festival (Autumn Fest) 2026

About this event

Held at the South Kyushu Livestock and Veterinary Center (SKLV) in Takarabe-cho, Soo City, Kagoshima Prefecture, "SKLV Autumn Festival (Autumn Fest) 2026" is packed with unique experiences distinctive to a livestock facility. In the veterinarian work experience, participants can learn enjoyably through hands-on activities, while cattle barn tours offer a rare glimpse inside usually unseen barns to gain deeper insight into livestock production sites and cattle. In addition, there will be mini trail riding on horseback to enjoy scenery from a different vantage point, and a wood education workshop (making castanets or chopsticks) to experience the joy of craftsmanship while feeling the warmth of wood. Some of these hands-on programs require advance reservations, and prospective participants must apply via a dedicated Google Form. On the day, the "Autumn Fest Marche" featuring food trucks, food vendors, local specialties, and handmade goods will also be held, creating a lively atmosphere. Furthermore, an abundance of content is available for both children and adults, including e-sports, a quiz rally, and free tastings of SKLV diced beef steak. As some experiences require advance reservations, checking the official website for details and applying early is recommended.
