Parada, the "King of Play" boasting one of Japan's largest air trampolines and a beetle dome, is officially launching its 2026 summer green season operations.

Saku Hiraoyama Development Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Saku City, Nagano Prefecture; President: Susumu Washio), which operates "Saku Daira Highway Oasis 'Parada'" (green season operations), will open new content and renewed attractions that stimulate children's five senses for the 2026 summer season.

This season, the summer-limited new sensation activity "Bubble Pool" makes its first appearance, enjoyed in the great outdoors just 90 minutes away from the city. Furthermore, by operating the ICS (Ice Crusher), the "Snow Mountain" area where visitors can enjoy playing in the snow in midsummer will appear again this year. The interactive attraction "Treasure Hunter," which has been overwhelmingly popular especially among small children, has also been powered up and renewed with a deeper worldview. In addition, starting with the "Sweets Fair" on July 4 (Sat) and 5 (Sun), "Parada's Evening Cool-down Gathering," where visitors can play plenty until night, will be held on July 11 (Sat) and 25 (Sat)! The appeal of this facility, which won 1st place on the outing information site "Iko-yo" and receives overwhelming support from families, is further enhanced.
