Located at the mouth of the Yoshino-gawa River, Tokushima has a history as a water-rich castle town, and also functions as a modern metropolitan city. Various conventions can be held in the compact collection of 20 convention facilities including a large multipurpose hall that seats 5,000—city hotels, business hotels and other facilities in the city center.
Mt. Bizan and Shinmachi-gawa River are just two of the natural environments within city limits where convention participants can go to relax during and after events, and the city offers a full slate of after-convention activities. Tokushima proudly offers various subsidy programs to help put on the best possible conventions for organizers and participants alike. Tokushima eagerly awaits the arrival of your convention.
