2024 Sapporo Snow Festival Will Feature Tamagotchi Exhibit
Bandai Japan has just announced that they will be bringing Tamagotchi to the Sapporo Snow Festival, and there’ a lot to be excited about! The Sapporo Snow Festival is a festival held annually in Sapporo, Japan, over seven days in February. You can see large snow sculptures and get some great pictures. This year it’s being held on Sunday, February 4th, 2024 through Sunday, February 11th, 2024 at Odori Park, Tsudome, and Susukino, which are all in the Hokkaidō area. Entry to the venues is free!
Tamagotchi will actually have its own exhibit at the 74th annual Sapporo Snow Festival, which started back in 1950 and now attractive more than 2 million people from Japan and abroad. For the first time there will be two Tamagotchi statues. The first will feature both Mametchi, and Kuchipathci along with a snowman that you’ve seen on the new Tamagotchi Uni! The second snow statue will be of a Tamagotchi Original with Mametchi on screen.
That’s now it! There will even a shop to purchase Tamagotchi products (including some exclusive Tamagotchi x Sapporo Snow Festival products which have yet to be announced), and shoppers picking up the Tamagotchi Uni will be able to get an exclusive limited edition Sapporo Snow Festival Tama Sticker!
