Overview
The 24th Kinshu Exhibition will be held at Takenodai Square (Fountain Square) in Ueno Park for five days, from Wednesday, October 21 to Sunday, October 25, 2026.
This year is the 24th edition of the Kinshu Exhibition. "Kinshu" describes autumn, when the leaves turn as vivid as richly woven brocade. The name suits an event held in late October.
