Summary
Upopoy has teamed up with popular Japanese quiz-and-learning brand QuizKnock for its first collaboration, a park-wide quiz rally running from July 2026 to March 2027.
Upopoy announced its first-ever collaboration with QuizKnock, a widely followed Japanese quiz-and-learning media brand led by quiz champion Takushi Izawa. The joint programme, titled A Challenge From QuizKnock in Upopoy, is a park-wide quiz rally running from July 11, 2026 through March 31, 2027.
How the quiz rally works
- Format: Eight quiz stations placed throughout the Upopoy grounds, each linked to displays or facilities.
- Recommended audience: Upper elementary and older; the format is playable by all ages.
- Duration: Approximately one to two hours.
- Cost: Free with Upopoy admission.
- Completion prize: Original sticker for finishers.
Why it matters
QuizKnock has over 2.6 million YouTube subscribers and is preparing its own 10th-anniversary campaign in October 2026. Partnering with a national Ainu institution moves the collaboration well beyond typical entertainment tie-ups and treats Ainu culture as substantive material for a learning-oriented audience.
For international readers
The rally is Japanese-language only, but its route through the site is a useful structured tour for first-time visitors who prefer active engagement over pure exhibition viewing.
