What is the Handmade in Japan Fes’?

This event supports creators who are passionate about making things by promoting the combination of Japanese creativity and handmade precision as a creative culture originating in Japan, "HandMade In Japan," both domestically and internationally.

HMJ, which started at Tokyo Big Sight in 2013, has grown into one of Japan's largest creator festivals, with over 50,000 participants. This year marks the 15th time it has been held.
