Ghibli Park is set to open on 1 November 2022 in Nagakute, Aichi Prefecture within the grounds of Aichi Earth Expo Memorial Park. 

You won't find rides or big attractions there, but 5 themed areas featuring the architecture, exhibits and artifacts from beloved Ghibli films like Satsuki and Mei's House from 'My Neighbor Totoro' and objects from 'Laputa: Castle in the Sky' and 'Howl's Moving Castle'.

The park will open with 3 themed areas: ‘Ghibli's Grand Warehouse’, ‘Hill of Youth’, and ‘Dondoko Forest’, with ‘Valley of Witches’ and ‘Mononoke Village’ to follow. 

In anticipation of the park’s opening, Aichi Tourism Bureau has collaborated with Studio Ghibli to produce a new video showcasing the attractions of the prefecture. ‘Play along with the Wind’ features themes and motifs that are often found in Ghibli films such as nostalgia, flight and the joy of running.

In the meantime, you can download Ghibli wallpapers from the official Studio Ghibli website (Japanese only) to brighten up your virtual calls. The selection includes images from the new park and Ghibli films such as ‘My Neighbor Totoro’, ‘Spirted Away’ and ‘Howl’s Moving Castle’.
