A new pop-up shop themed around the Haikyuu!! anime series will tour four cities in Japan, built around an all-new illustration of the cast enjoying a school cultural festival. “Haikyuu!! Waku Waku Bunkasai POP UP SHOP by Production I.G” opens first in Tokyo on October 23, 2026 (Friday), then moves on to Osaka, Gifu, and Gunma.
New artwork puts the cast at a cultural festival
The freshly drawn visual places eight characters, Hinata Shouyou and Kageyama Tobio among them, into the cheerful bustle of a school festival, with each of them enjoying the event in their own way. The announcement spotlights scenes such as Oikawa-san and Iwa-chan taking in a butler cafe, while the Miya brothers take the stage for a manzai comedy routine.
Acrylic stands, clear files, and other new goods
The shop will carry merchandise that uses the new illustration, including acrylic stands and can badges.
| Item | Lineup | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Waku Waku Bunkasai acrylic stands | 8 types | 1,980 yen each (tax included) |
| Waku Waku Bunkasai clear files | 4 types | 550 yen each (tax included) |
Purchase bonus and photo spots
Visitors who spend 2,200 yen (tax included) or more will receive one postcard as a purchase bonus. Nine postcard designs are available, and the bonus is handed out at random.
Each venue will also set up photo spots, including standee panels of the new artwork, so fans can take pictures alongside the characters and soak up the festival atmosphere.

About the series
Furudate Haruichi’s Haikyuu!! is a landmark sports manga that ran in Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump from February 2012 for eight and a half years, winning fans with its story of high school students pouring themselves into volleyball. Production I.G has handled the anime, with the television series airing from 2014 through December 2020. The February 2024 film Gekijouban Haikyuu!! Gomisuteba no Kessen drew worldwide box office earnings of more than 20 billion yen and took the Japan Academy Prize for Excellent Animation. A follow-up film, Gekijouban Haikyuu!! VS Chiisana Kyojin, is set for 2027 and will depict Karasuno versus Kamomedai and the “small giant” showdown between Hinata and Hoshiumi.
