Fukuoka Convention & Visitors Bureau is a Public Interest Incorporated Foundation established jointly among the municipal government, the private sector and the academic in order to attract visitors and conventions to Fukuoka City. Fukuoka has preserved its cultural and natural sites, unique local cuisine, seasonal festivals and traditions. In addition the city is setting new trends continuously as the hub for Kyushu, the southern most of Japan’s four main islands, and growing as an international exchange city. We hope to enhance the urban appeal even further while disseminating these tourism resources at home and abroad proactively.
