LuckyFes'26 begins accepting applications for food vendors in the "Lucky Dining" food area and other venues from March 12th, with 48 stores being recruited to create a "festival food theme park"

LuckyFM Ibaraki Broadcasting Co., Ltd. (headquarters: Mito City, Ibaraki Prefecture) is now accepting applications for vendors for the "Lucky Dining" food area at LuckyFes'26, which will be held for four consecutive days on August 8th (Sat), 9th (Sun), 10th (Mon), and 11th (Tues, national holiday) at Hitachi Seaside Park. This year, in order to eliminate the long lines that were an issue last year, the food area has been expanded and 42 stores are being recruited, a 20% increase.

This year's food area will communicate the fun of festivals and the charm of Ibaraki to Friends (participants) through festival food, with the keywords "Festival Food Theme Park" and "Ibaraki, Nationwide, World Premium Festival Food." In addition to menus using ingredients from Ibaraki, the food area will offer an even more carefully selected selection of premium festival food than last year, including gourmet food that is leading the way in Japanese festival food and overseas cuisine.

Additionally, the food area will use containers made from eco-friendly materials, aiming to be an earth-friendly festival.

If you're a restaurant with a menu item that you think will satisfy your Friends, apply now! Let's create a super popular festival menu with LuckyFes!
