Shibuya's GX Fes Returns With Eight School-Company Teams
The event's expansion signals that Shibuya Ward and its corporate partners are treating school-company environmental education as a continuing local program rather than a one-off.

Shibuya Ward elementary and junior high schools are again paired with companies for an environmental culture festival. The event runs October 15 and 16, 2026, at the Shibuya Station East Exit Underground Plaza. Each school works with one company or local government across three outreach classes on themes like resource circulation and biodiversity, presenting the results through panels, quizzes, and games. Junior high schools join for the first time, bringing the total to eight teams.
The format pairs one school with one company or local government. Outreach classes run from before the summer holidays on themes such as resource circulation, biodiversity, and decarbonized community building, then children try environmental actions at school before the festival.
At the venue, school groups visit each other's exhibits and tour with a Stamp Rally BOOK. General visitors can also take part during the public opening hours. The festival is held as part of the Green Xrossing Shibuya Project, which has screened environmental videos on signage around Shibuya Station.
