ADA Festival 2026 will take place over two days, Saturday, October 10 and Sunday, October 11, 2026, at ADA Headquarters. Today, we are pleased to unveil the event’s key visual and overall venue layout.
This marks ADA’s first comprehensive event, bringing together exhibitions, special merchandise, hands-on experiences, as well as food and beverages. Through a wide range of programs, visitors will be invited to directly experience ADA’s worldview and encounter something new.





■ About ADA Festival
With the ADA Festival, we will present both the present and the future of ADA to our visitors. We are planning diverse programs designed to inspire new discoveries, moments of surprise, and a full appreciation of the appeal of Nature Aquarium.
In addition to a public viewing event held in conjunction with the IAPLC, the festival will feature various stage programs, outdoor attractions, and special merchandise sales, offering a rich and immersive experience.

■ Venue Overview
The event will be organized across two main areas:
Area A, centered around the Nature Aquarium Gallery at ADA Headquarters, and Area B, featuring a dedicated special stage.

Area A
Alongside planted aquarium displays in the Gallery, this area will host outdoor sales of event-exclusive products, a Plants Bazaar, and interactive attractions. Designed as a walk-through experience, the space allows visitors to naturally flow between exhibitions, shopping, and hands-on activities.

Area B
At the special stage in Area B, we will host programs that further explore the appeal of ADA and Nature Aquarium. Food and beverages will also be available from kitchen cars, creating an open and comfortable space where visitors can relax and enjoy the programs.

■ IAPLC Public Viewing (October 10)
On Saturday, October 10, a special IAPLC public viewing will be held at the stage in Area B.
The “IAPLC2026 World Rankings,” streamed via ADAview, will be broadcast live on large multi-display screens. Together with attendees at the venue, we will share the highly anticipated moment watched by audiences around the world.
Additional programs featuring IAPLC participants in attendance are also being planned. We invite you to experience the unique sense of excitement and immediacy that can only be felt on site.

Further details regarding admission procedures and access will be announced in early June. Please stay tuned for updates via our official website.
