Follow the students' works and join workshops
This year's theme is a civilization where nature and expression coexist, and the campus will be decorated with a world centered on a temple called "FIORALUNE." Students plan and run the festival on their own initiative, exhibiting works in a wide range of fields such as Japanese-style painting, oil painting, sculpture and design.
A stamp rally, in which visitors collect stamps as they tour the exhibition venues, will also be held. Around the campus, clubs and volunteer groups will give performances and live shows, and workshops and puzzle-solving games that visitors can take part in are also planned.

Seven kinds of official goods, including drawstring pouches and croquis books
A goods and flea market selling original works made by students will also open. The official goods are designed by students based on FIORALUNE's animals and worldview, and will be sold in limited quantities at the official store during the festival.
The seven items are a drawstring pouch, an embroidered can badge, a croquis book, a clear file folder, a can and stickers, a tote bag and a metal charm. An official program booklet will also be sold.
