An activity where you can enjoy experiencing linguistic diversity by writing and pronouncing your name in various languages from around the world. With the support of international volunteers and staff, participants can try writing in languages they may not often encounter, such as Arabic, Chinese, Hindi, and Thai.

We want to create more opportunities for children to connect with the world. That's why we organized Kids Global Festival.
By interacting beyond language and cultural differences, we hope children will feel, "The world is fun! The world is big!".
We want them to see English not just as a subject to study but as a tool to connect with people worldwide. Through this, they can discover the joy of cultural exchange and international connections. With the support of various organizations, this festival aims to broaden children’s horizons, help them embrace diversity, and open new possibilities for their future.
Since this is our first event, we don’t know how much demand there is. But we believe that simply bringing children and people from different cultures together to play and talk will make for an unforgettable experience.
I wish I had a festival like this when I was a child!
It may be small in scale, but let’s have fun connecting with the world together!
