MANGA KIDS ACADEMY EXPO

Manga Kids Academy is back at Manga Barcelona! A space for kids to create, explore, and dive into everything that makes Japan so unique. This year, we’re leveling up the exhibition area with a new feature all about Japanese food. Because in Japan, food isn’t just something you eat—it’s an experience deeply tied to nature and the changing seasons.

What do people eat in Japan when summer hits? What about when the cold rolls in? What are the must-try seasonal ingredients everyone looks forward to? Discover how the Japanese choose, prepare, and enjoy their food throughout the year—and why every season comes with its own signature flavors and favorite dishes. Get ready… this will make you hungry!

As always, this is a family-friendly expo: visual and hands-on for kids, with extra deep-dive content for adults via QR codes.
