🎏 Thank you everyone for participating in our Koinobori Contest!

Congratulations to our winner, Michelle Leong! 🏆
She has won a pair of Category 3 tickets to Drum Tao 2026 – BEYOND THE BEST! 🎫✨

“My inspiration came from the koinobori I saw at Glover Garden in Nagasaki — red and golden orange. I’m very surprised and honoured to have been chosen because there were so many beautiful entries.”

Thank you once again to everyone who participated and filled the Bunka Lounge with so many colourful koinobori 🎏

Participants who would like to keep their koinobori may collect them from the Bunka Lounge by the end of May.

More Bunka events are coming soon — follow us to stay tuned! 🇯🇵

At Bunka, we don’t just teach Japanese.
We share the culture and traditions behind the language.
