The 20th birthday of a local legend calls for collaborations with Hello Kitty, Chubu Centrair International Airport, and 15 local businesses. March 28, 2027 will mark 20 years to the day when the city of Tokoname in Aichi Prefecture erected a giant manekineko (beckoning cat) statue affectionately named Tokonyan. As of August 1, three collaborative goods with Sanrio star Hello Kitty are being sold at the Tokoname Tourism Association. They’ll then automatically be entered into a lottery to win some fantastic prizes such as Tokonyan merch or local Tokoname specialty products.
