Promotion for Arts and Sports
Promotion for Arts and Sports Kitakyushu International Music Festival
STOTO, which has its headquarters in Kitakyushu, has been a special supporter of this festival since it was first held in 1988 as we endorse the goal of the city of Kitakyushu in Fukushima Prefecture, which is to "develop a city redolent with culture." Every year, the festival brings in major artists from Japan and other countries and provides large numbers of visitors with an opportunity for musical appreciation. We have also continually provided an educational program that gives children from pre-school age through to junior high school age the opportunity to feel the joy of music by experiencing a full-scale concert.
