Regional Creation Nagasaki Co., Ltd. is pleased to announce that five commercial facilities in Nagasaki City, including Nagasaki Stadium City, Yume Town Yume Saito, Amu Plaza Nagasaki, Nagasaki Hamaya, and Mirai Nagasaki Cocowalk, will be collaborating to hold a "Grand Raffle Held Jointly by 5 Facilities" from (Wed), July 1st to Monday, July 20th, 2026.
For this third annual event, we have prepared fantastic prizes to help you fully enjoy the "Nagasaki Stadium City Arena Kabuki Dance Special Performance."
This campaign aims to preserve Nagasaki's culture and nurture the next generation through "VIP BOX seats for up to 8 people per group" where you can enjoy the performance without worrying about those around you, and through invitations to "Renjishi" stage rehearsals (which are just like the real thing) that children would never normally get to see, as well as workshops. It's a campaign that will turn your everyday shopping into "special summer memories."

 

■ Our thoughts behind the "5-institution collaboration"
This project was started with the desire to "liven up Nagasaki together with the neighboring commercial facilities" and to promote walking around Nagasaki City, and this is the third time it has been held. Following the first event in July 2025 and the second event held in January 2026 at Nagasaki Stadium City in conjunction with the large-scale event <Resona Group B.LEAGUE ALL-STAR GAME WEEKEND 2026 IN NAGASAKI>, we aim to encourage many people to walk around the city. With this third event, we hope that the people of Nagasaki will enjoy this project as an opportunity to walk around the city, that their daily shopping will be more enjoyable, and that Nagasaki's commercial facilities and the city itself will become even more vibrant.

 

■The background behind choosing "Kabuki" as a prize: The preservation of Nagasaki's Kabuki culture and hopes for the next generation.

The reason for including "Kabuki" as the main prize this time is a resonance between the desire of the five-facility collaboration office to "provide children with a special experience during their summer vacation" and the wish of the Kabuki organizers to "let the children of Nagasaki experience Kabuki, which is seeing a decline in the number of performers."
Nagasaki City once boasted more than ten kabuki and theater venues, including the Maizuru-za, which flourished as the largest theater in western Japan. Kabuki culture was so deeply rooted that the area was even named "Kabuki-cho" on old maps. However, with the changing times, that culture has faded away. With the Arena Kabuki Dance Special Performances that began last year, we sincerely hope that this experience will inspire the emergence of future talent to lead the kabuki world, and that children will say, "I can't forget the kabuki I saw at Nagasaki Stadium City when I was a child."

 

■Theater x Expression! Invitation to a "Renjishi" Stage Rehearsal Just Like the Real Thing and a Special Workshop
The "Kabuki Prize" of this campaign will invite 100 parent-child pairs (200 people in total) of elementary school children or younger to the "Renjishi" stage rehearsal on August 6th (Thu), the day before the actual performance. This is a premium experience where you can experience the powerful stage up close, with everything from the stage sets and costumes to the live music being performed in the same condition as the actual performance. Furthermore, to make this theatrical experience even more deeply etched in their memories, we will hold a workshop after the performance where children can express what they felt on paper using any method they like (pictures, letters, colors, shapes, etc.). On the day, student assistants who have seen Kabuki beforehand will support the children's expressions.
The completed artwork will be on special display at Nagasaki Stadium City.
