Legendary Japanese animation studio Studio Ghibli will be opening its first theme park in Japan in 2022, and the first details have been revealed.
As reported by Variety, Studio Ghibli will be joining forces with the government of the Aichi Prefecture and the Chunichi Shimbun newspaper to develop the brand-new theme park within the Expo 2005 Aichi Commemorative Park. This land is near Nagoya in central Japan and held a world’s fair for 185 days in 2005 that attracted close to 22 million visitors to the 460-acre site.
Studio Ghibli producer Toshio Suzuki, Aichi governor Hideaki Omura, and Chunichi CEO Uichiro Oshima held a press conference recently in Tokyo, Japan and said that the park would open in the fall of 2022, and additional attractions would be opening a year later.
