A new special event celebrating everyone's favorite ninja is coming to Awaji Island. Nijigen no Mori's "NARUTO & BORUTO Shinobi Village" will host the "Shinobi Village Naruto Birthday 2025 Pre-Event" on October 9th, 2025, from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM.
This exclusive pre-event takes place the day before Naruto's actual birthday on October 10th, offering fans a unique opportunity to celebrate early. The attraction has already launched six different celebration plans for Naruto's birthday starting in September.
Event Highlights
The pre-event offers three main activities that recreate the world of NARUTO:
Chunin Exam First Trial: True or False Quiz
Following the anime's storyline, visitors can participate in a special version of the Chunin Exam's first trial. Those who answer all the true or false questions correctly will receive tickets for an exclusive photo session with Naruto.
Private Photo Session with Naruto
Winners of the quiz challenge get to enjoy a special greeting with Uzumaki Naruto himself. Unlike the regular sessions held only at "Hokage Rock," the pre-event allows participants to choose from four different photo spots: "A・NBU Black Ops Gate," "Ramen Ichiraku," "Kurama," and the traditional Hokage Rock location.
Mission Rally "Earth Scroll" Time Attack
A first-ever time attack event will be held during the quieter evening hours. Participants race to collect seals according to given instructions in the "Earth Scroll" area. Rankings will be determined by completion status and time, with top three finishers receiving original "NARUTO & BORUTO Shinobi Village" novelty items.
Additional activities include opening acts and projection mapping shows throughout the event.
