Gaspard and Lisa Town, a Parisian-themed area at Fuji-Q Highland in Fujiyoshida City, Yamanashi Prefecture, will host its first-ever "Chocolate Festa" from Sunday, February 1 to Saturday, April 5, 2026, celebrating the Valentine's and White Day season.
The festa features the theme "Clumsy Gaspard and Lisa Try Their Hand at Being Chocolatiers," with the town adorned in chocolate-scented decorations. Various shops throughout the town will offer colorful fair menus using milk chocolate, strawberry chocolate, and white chocolate, filling the entire area with sweet aromas.
During the fair period, visitors who spend 2,000 yen or more at participating stores can join the "Chocolate Tour Campaign." Participants will receive an original fair "Chocolate Card" that retains the sweet scent of chocolate even after returning home. Additionally, those who make another purchase of 2,000 yen or more at a different shop will receive a "Clumsy Acrylic Keychain" featuring Gaspard and Lisa working hard at chocolate-making while getting chocolate everywhere.
Various events will also take place during the fair period, including greetings with Gaspard and Lisa in chocolatier costumes (limited to the 2nd and 4th Saturdays), and special ceremonies on Valentine's Day (February 14) and White Day (March 14) where Gaspard and Lisa exchange letters. These limited-time presentations offer a chance to see the characters in a different light.
Fuji-Q Highland's Gaspard and Lisa Town invites guests to experience a sweet and heartwarming festa that blends the world of Gaspard and Lisa with chocolate this Valentine's and White Day season.
