Sanrio Puroland is introducing an original touch rally game to the park inspired by Sanrio Boys, a media project that was set up around a group of boys who love Sanrio’s characters. The event begins on April 28, where a special discount will also be given to male attendees who arrive at the park holding plushies of the same characters that the Sanrio Boys do.
The Sanrio Boys Touch Rally will have people running around Puroland while listening to voice messages. If you purchase the Sanrio Boys IC card that has all 5 members on it and use it to touch four terminals in the park, you’ll be able to hear voice messages from the characters. They will appear on the terminal display. Listen to their messages, head around the park and touch all the terminals. Those who clear the course will receive a Sanrio Boys original pin-back button. The stories that will take place in the voices messages will change from season to season, so enjoy hearing all of them.
Also, in line with the event, those who arrive carrying the same plushies as the Boys can enjoy a special discount. If you satisfy the conditions, you can purchase a Puroland passport ticket at a special price. The character plushies include Pompompurin, My Melody, Hello Kitty, Little Twin Stars, Badtzmaru, Cinnamoroll, and Kerropi. Simply show your plushy at the Sanrio Puroland ticket booth.
A series of live events titled Miracle☆Stage “Sanrio Boys” is also slated for November this year with the immensely popular Boys. Get up close and personal with them at the events and maybe find your favourite Sanrio character too.

Starting July 15, Sanrio Puroland will premiere a new show, Nakayoku Connect. The unique hands-on experience will blend both the real and virtual worlds.
The interactive show Nakayoku Connect is set to introduce a new type of entertainment that combines a real live show filled with twinkling lights and lasers set to pop dance music with a virtual world. This is the first new show to be performed at Puro Village in three years, since Wish me mell’s Chance for You began in September 2019. This will also be the first time in about two years–since the temporary closure in 2020–that regular shows will be held in Puro Village during business hours. For the first time ever, this show will be presented not only in Puroland, but virtually as well. Visitors are welcome to enjoy this unprecedented experimental show incorporating the world around us and the world inside the computer. In Japanese, Nakayoku means ‘to care about friends’ and ‘to get along happily.’ The creators of the show believe that this is an important value to think about today, and visitors will enjoy seeing their favorite characters, from Hello Kitty and Dear Daniel to Bad Badtz-Maru and Kogimyun. The live and virtual shows will be performed simultaneously, and the characters will wear new costumes inspired by the concept of retro-futurism. For a more immersive experience, the show will utilize a ‘fiber beam’ for the first time ever. Harmless to the body, the entirety of Puro Village will be illuminated, with the lights and animations linked to the show’s music. Come enjoy this brand-new experience! Information
