Tourism EXPO Japan (TEJ) is Japan's largest comprehensive tourism event. It brings together stakeholders from the tourism industry to exchange ideas and promote tourism, both domestic and international, as well as revitalize local communities. The exhibition and trade show provides business opportunities, while general visitors can enjoy direct marketing. The event is held annually and last year, held in Aichi Prefecture, it showcased 1,350 organizations from 82 countries/regions. Over the course of its 4-day span, over 127,600 visitors attended the event.

The Osaka Convention & Tourism Bureau (OCTB) is working to boost Osaka's worldwide notoriety as a global hub in all facets of tourism. As such, every year the OCTB participates at Tourism EXPO Japan to share the latest activities, entertainment, food, specials, and more.

This year, we'll be exhibiting jointly with 5 other associations: Osaka Castle Park Management Co., Ltd., Kansai Airports Co., Ltd., Kishiwada (Kishiwada City, Kishiwada City Tourism Promotion Association), Sakai Tourism Convention Association, and Suito Osaka Consortium.
 
In addition, the Osaka Habikino Tourism Bureau, known for wine and World Heritage sites, will offer their cooperation by offering wine tastings and sales, and the Osaka Regional Taxation Bureau (National Tax Agency) will be offering Japanese sake tastings!

The theme for this year's Tourism EXPO Japan is “The Changing Nature of Travel.” With humanity developing at a breakneck speed, including technological advances, diversifying values, and new lifestyles, travel is changing in ways never seen before. In this every changing world, the event aims to spotlight journeys to rediscover regional charm, journeys to deepen learning, journeys to center the mind, and journeys to connect with the world.

We invite you to visit the Osaka booth and discover how the old and the new coexist in the abundant charms of Osaka.
