■Important Information for WMDF-goers

(July 25, 2009 )

We are looking forward to welcoming many people to our event. To promote a happy and successful Festival we hope that WMDF-goers will keep in mind:

  1. We encourage the use of public transport wherever possible.
  2. Please, if you drink, don't drive.
  3. There is strictly no photography (still/video) of stage performances.
  4. WMDF events (including "colour" such as audience participation) will be archived by accredited camera crews and photographers. Please be aware that images obtained in this way may be used by the WMDF Committee for publicity purposes (both online and in mainstream media). Attendance at any WMDF event indicates acceptance of the "fair use" of your personal image in this way. The entry point for any query about the use of images is email to wmdf.org, user name wmdf.





We wish you all a big, long WMDF.

■Sponsor Pass

(July 25, 2009 )

  • WMDF Sponsor Pass
Those who wish to support our festival can do so by purchasing a "Sponsor Pass".   This pass (2,000yen) gives free admission to the showpiece final concert, but more importantly allows townspeople to show their support for our cause, and to publicise our event.
  • Sponsor Pass Priviliges
1. Free entry to Showpiece Finale Performance on Aug 13th
2. Free drink service at Folk Dance party and Premium live
3. A wealth of other discounts and perks across town.   

  • Sponsor Pass Booklet!
 Many shops, restaurants, and other businesses were kind enough to offer discounts
 for Sponsor Pass holders during the Festival. Details are in the Sponsor Pass booklet:

  • Getting the most out of your pass
We especially encourage Sponsor Pass holders to wear their pass during their daily lives in the weeks leading up to the event. A thousand people in Hakodate each day wearing this pass will surely be noticed! We also hope that Sponsor Pass holders will make new friends by greeting each other. How about taking this chance to show your support, and to join and expand our community?

You may even earn yourself a chance to talk with a star of the Festival: the visiting artists will be encouraged to acknowledge wearers of the Sponsor Pass with a special greeting if they see them around town, for instance during their sightseeing.


  • Purchasing
A Sponsor Pass costs 2000 Yen. A voucher to acquire a pass can be purchased at Lawson Tickets (L-code:17419). Passes are also available in many places around town.
