KIST Festival 2026


KIST Festival 2026 is just a few weeks away! Join us on Saturday, October 24, for a day of food, activities, entertainment, and fun for the whole family.

The festival is open to everyone; however, guests from the general public who are not accompanied by a member of the KIST community will need to register before entering campus.

To save time at the gate, we encourage guests from the general public to pre-register using the link below:

Each non-KIST family should submit one pre-registration form per household. All members of your group should arrive together and enter campus at the same time. Guests who pre-register will receive a QR code by e-mail to scan at the gate for entry on the day. If you experience any technical issues when submitting the pre-registration form, please contact our main office at: info@kist.ed.jp

It will also be possible to register at the gate on the day of the festival, but please be prepared to wait in line.

*KIST families do not need to pre-register. Please remember to bring your KIST parent and student ID cards to show at the gate.
