The GREEN×EXPO Association (Japan Association for the International Horticultural Expo 2027) and East Japan Railway Company (JR East) have installed a countdown board in Tokyo Station to commemorate the 300-day milestone before the opening of GREEN×EXPO 2027 on May 23, 2026.
The board is located in the Central Passage on the 1st floor of Tokyo Station (inside the ticket gates) and will be displayed from May 22, 2026, until the expo concludes on September 26, 2027. The design incorporates visuals of a venue filled with flowers and greenery, the official mascot character 'Tunktunk,' and the new catchphrase 'Let's go bloom with the Earth.' A digital signage in the center of the board will display the countdown and broadcast promotional videos to enhance public interest.
JR East plans to continue promoting the expo using its transportation media and stations across the East Japan area.
