2. About the Event

This event is an initiative aimed at connecting and rediscovering the charm and activities of the town, with the residents of Sagami-Ono as the main focus. Over two days, participants had the opportunity to experience various activities and initiatives while touring the town, with four areas serving as venues: Proud Tower Sagami-Ono Cross Ohno Cross Plaza, Corridor Street, Sagami-Ono Central Park, and Sagami Women's University Green Hall.

At the Proud Tower Sagami-Ono Cross Ohno Cross Plaza, one of the venues, a tape-cutting ceremony was held on the first day of the event, and a Day & Night Market offering different atmospheres during the day and night was developed.

By actually walking through each area, visitors had opportunities to encounter locally rooted activities and their organizers, and to feel the diverse expressions of the town of Sagami-Ono. Approximately 4,000 people visited over the two days, including those returning from work, families, and people spending their holidays in Sagami-Ono, through markets and food and beverage offerings that utilized the lawn space (Ohno Cross Plaza).

The "Sagami-Ono Minna no Kyogikai" plans to hold regular events in the future. For information on the use of the Proud Tower Sagami-Ono Cross Ohno Cross Plaza, please visit the council's website.
