About this event
Held at Yamanashi Parasports Center (Kawatamachi, Kofu City), the universal event 'Hibi Kore 2026' aims to foster interaction among people transcending the presence or absence of disabilities, age, gender, and nationality. Aiming to nurture an inclusive society, it is implemented as a subsidized project of the Osada Furusato Foundation. The main event is the universal fashion show 'Gochamaze Monster', creating a stage that does not adhere to uniform standards of beauty, but instead affirms and celebrates the individuality and life of each model. A young person with disabilities will appear in self-painted costumes, supported by young creators, highlighting collaboration that transcends generations and disabilities. Regional welfare facilities, makeup artists, occupational therapists capable of sign language, and student volunteers will participate in the management, and organizations involved in LGBTQ+ activities will also collaborate. An exhibition of letters addressed to 'Precious You' and a 'Rest Area' for dialogue will also be set up at the venue. On the stage, hula dance shows, Jazzercise trial sessions, kids dance shows, breakdance trial sessions, and an all-generation participation 'Gochamaze Disco' will be held. In the parking lot area, 7 food and drink vendors will open stalls, and in the gymnasium area, 20 booths will be set up featuring workshops, therapy, sales of accessories and general goods, card fortune-telling, and more. Goods sales booths by welfare facilities will also line up, creating a venue where diverse people can interact and enjoy a variety of experiences.
