We have reached the final day of this year’s event.

We were blessed with great weather and huge audiences all week. Today we run until 21:30, and it looks like we will beat the rain, so make the most of this last chance. An event our size running on Friday, Saturday, Sunday and then having a closing day on Monday is surely not usual, but we already have a well-filled park.

At the closing finale you have a one and only chance to see a large number of this year’s WMDF artists on stage at once. Come along and help bring a grand curtain down on this year’s event.

WMDF held its Opening Party in the restaurant Ratna for the first time. To mark being held in Goryoukaku, the groups from each country built towers. Made from balloons. Coloridas put on a session that literally got everyone dancing around the whole stage. Thanks to Hakodate City for their support and for the official presents for each group. Thanks also to our T-shirt sponsors Apparel Fukushoku Kyoukai for their t-shirt support. Motomachi Park opens from August 5th. The party rocked this much; you really should come to see how the main event takes this to another level.
