Cheer Together With "Unko!" at Autumn BIG Unko Band 2026
The unko animals are a new species of creature born at Unko Museum. With rounded, three-tiered bodies, fluffy fur, and fluffy tails, each one has a distinct personality and character. Twelve types of unko animals have been confirmed so far.
One day, while playing at Unko Museum, the unko animals decided they wanted to play instruments to enjoy autumn even more. They made a wish to the Unko Volcano — a giant volcano inside the museum that stores poop energy gathered from around the world — and their wish came true, granting them the ability to play instruments.
At the staff's call, the unko animals gathered with their favorite instruments — trumpets, saxophones, drums, and more — and the "BIG Unko Band" performance began.
Visitors gather around the Unko Volcano, chant "Unko!" together, and groove to the rhythm the BIG Unko Band plays.
