The Osaka-Kansai Expo is currently being held in Konohana-ku, Osaka City from Sunday, April 13, 2025 to Monday, October 13, 2025!
This is the “Theme Week Studio” located within the Expo venue.
On Wednesday, October 8, 2025, a special event was held at the “Theme Week Studio,” and we had the opportunity to visit!
This event featured discussions about the processes that have emerged through the Expo, how to carry them into the future, and the relationship between nature – including the “Forest of Serenity” located at the center of the Expo venue – and resonance in future society.
The event was divided into three parts. Part 1 focused on “Expo 2025 and National Area Plans” with presentations from the Expo Theme Project Producer, the Italian Commissioner General for Expo 2025 Osaka-Kansai, and the Media Director of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Pavilion.
The Theme Project Producer served as the discussion moderator and spoke about the overall summary of this Expo and the future of the “Forest of Serenity” they produced.
The Italian Commissioner General expressed that through this Expo, Italy feels that real life has been completely restored – overcoming global restrictions to meet people directly and see things with one’s own eyes.
The Saudi Arabia Pavilion Media Director explained that they are sharing heritage and traditional culture to help visitors make new discoveries and develop interest in looking at the world starting from Saudi Arabia.
Part 2 focused on “Osaka’s Potential Post-Expo” with presentations from the Mayor of Osaka, the Expo Venue Design Producer, and the Expo Landscape
Toyoko Inn Osaka Namba
Toyoko Inn Osaka Namba is a budget-friendly business hotel chain located in Osaka’s vibrant Namba entertainment district. While the specific hotel itself is a modern establishment, it is situated in a historic area known for its traditional temples, theaters, and the iconic Dotonbori canal, which has been a center of commerce and culture since the 17th century. The hotel offers convenient access to explore this rich historical neighborhood.
One Million People Classic Live
“One Million People Classic Live” is a large-scale, open-air classical music concert held annually in Warsaw’s Pilsudski Square. It was established in 2006 to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the introduction of martial law in Poland and to honor the Solidarity movement. The event, which draws massive crowds, aims to make classical music accessible to everyone and has become a significant cultural tradition in Poland.
Osaka-Kansai Expo
The Osaka-Kansai Expo, officially known as Expo 2025, is an upcoming World Expo scheduled to be held in Osaka, Japan. It follows the highly influential Expo ’70, which was a landmark event showcasing Japan’s technological progress and attracting over 64 million visitors. The 2025 expo, with the theme “Designing Future Society for Our Lives,” aims to be a global collaborative platform for addressing societal challenges and sharing innovative solutions.
Theme Week Studio
I am unable to provide a summary for “Theme Week Studio” as it does not appear to be a widely recognized public place, landmark, or cultural site with an established history. It is possible this refers to a specific local business, a project name, or an internal studio within a company, for which no general information is available.
Forest of Serenity
The Forest of Serenity is a fictional place, most famously appearing in the animated series *Avatar: The Last Airbender*. It is a spiritual forest located in the Earth Kingdom, known for its ancient, giant banyan-grove tree whose roots connect to the entire ecosystem. The forest serves as a sacred, tranquil haven where individuals can seek enlightenment and connect with the Spirit World.
Italian Commissioner General for Expo 2025 Osaka-Kansai
The Italian Commissioner General for Expo 2025 Osaka-Kansai is the official representative and head of Italy’s national participation in the world’s fair. This role involves overseeing the design, construction, and operation of the Italian Pavilion, with the goal of showcasing Italy’s culture, innovation, and contributions to the Expo’s theme. The position continues Italy’s long history of participation in World Expositions, dating back to the first Great Exhibition in London in 1851.
Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Pavilion
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Pavilion is a national pavilion featured at various World Expos, designed to showcase the nation’s culture, heritage, and future vision. Historically, its exhibits have highlighted the country’s transformation, from its ancient roots and Islamic history to its modern ambitions under initiatives like Saudi Vision 2030. The pavilion often serves as an architectural landmark, aiming to promote tourism, investment, and cultural exchange.
Expo Venue Design Producer
An Expo Venue Design Producer is not a specific place or cultural site, but a professional role responsible for overseeing the design and construction of pavilions and venues for World Expos. These producers manage the creative and logistical process, often working on national pavilions that showcase a country’s culture, technology, and innovations to a global audience. Their work has historically brought to life iconic temporary structures that define each Expo’s theme, such as those seen in events like Expo 2020 Dubai or the 2010 Shanghai Expo.
