Event Concept & Execution
“Hakone Run Fes” is an entertainment sports festival set in the wonderful natural surroundings of Hakone, overlooking Mount Fuji.
Under the concept of "Competing for Fun," our aim is to create an opportunity to enjoy Hakone through the joy and freedom of sport, and create an eco-friendly, sustainable sports festival that is considerate of the natural environment.
This event will offer a wide variety of enjoyable activities in addition to running. The activities are intended to allow people to fully enjoy everything that Hakone has to offer, including live artist performances, gourmet food made with local ingredients, product exhibitions, and workshops.
Hakone Run Fes features sustainable initiatives every year. For example, runners are given foldable silicone cups to drink water, reducing the amount of paper cups used. We have also implemented eco-friendly initiatives like utilising reusable materials for fixtures and equipment, and through the introduction of "CO₂ ZERO MICE®", the event aims to be carbon neutral.
