The live stage will showcase a variety of performances, including band shows, Japanese wadaiko drums, brass bands, and dance.

A fashion show will present student-designed pieces, with online voting open to support the show. In addition, there will be food stalls serving meals and sweets prepared by students, as well as a bustling market selling handmade original crafts and vintage clothing.
