A collaboration with world-renowned all-girl rock band SCANDAL! 「FUKUOKA WELCOME CAMPAIGN 2018 Spring」 shopping campaign for foreign travelers to be held

---

In conjunction with the spring season of February when many foreigners visit, a shopping campaign with 14 participating businesses will be held for foreign visitors visiting Fukuoka.

Fukuoka City Center and its neighboring commercial facilities will be sponsoring the "FUKUOKA WELCOME CAMPAIGN," which provides discounts, gifts, and special benefits for foreign travelers. This rare initiative in which the entire city collaborates will be held for the 10th time since beginning in 2013. This effort that is also rarely seen nationwide in which the entire city participates will mark the tenth time this time since it began in 2013. For the 2018 spring campaign, 14 businesses will participate, from the commercial facilities in the entrance of the Hakata area of Kyushu, to the Nakasu Kawabata area, the Tenjin area, and commercial facilities of the Nishi-ku area with comfortable sea breezes.

The campaign this time is focused on a collaboration with world-renowned all-girl rock band SCANDAL. Since posters and leaflets will be sent to participating locations, finding their poster or leaflet during the duration is a sign that you can enjoy shopping deals! Additionally, a special project will be held where you can win SCANDAL goods via lottery when visiting to participating businesses during this campaign.
