Moominvalley Park will be hosting its popular annual summer event, "Water Play in Moominvalley," from July 3rd (Fri) to September 6th (Sun), 2026. Simultaneously, the adjacent metsä Village will be hosting "Elf Forest - metsä's Sea of Clouds 2026," a wondrous world of trees awakened by the magical power of the Nordic fairies, the elves.
We've previewed three new programs making their debut this summer : "Summer with Moran and Snow & Splash!" , where you can have a blast splashing water with Moran, the monster that freezes everything; " Sunny Sunny Playtime!" , featuring Moominvalley characters in swimsuits and summer items, depicting a summer moment spent at the beach; and " Hattifattener Downpour," where a torrential downpour suddenly descends on an island full of Hattifatteners .
Furthermore, they unveiled "Moominvalley's Sea of Clouds," where the Moominvalley area is enveloped in a sea of clouds . Popular characters such as Moomintroll, Snorkmaiden, Sniff, and Little My also appeared in swimsuits and summer items for a photo session.
Until Wednesday, September 30th, including the event period, we are running a "Children's Support Campaign" where children aged 4 to high school students can purchase a 1-day pass for 500 yen (tax included). Make your summer outing to Moominvalley Park a great deal!
