Japan’s various summer festivals are enviable, but Breeze Taipei Atré lets you experience the festive spirit without flying abroad. During its second Summer Carnival, it specially invited the "Yo-kai Watch?Song Family" to join in the fun. In conjunction with Valentine’s Day, it specially displayed colorfully decorated streamers in sync with Sendai, Japan, creating surprise-filled photo spots full of summery festival vibes.

The Sendai Tanabata Festival is also one of the three major festivals in Japan’s Tohoku region. Originating about 400 years ago during the Edo period, it was an event held by local ruler Date Masamune to pray for a bountiful harvest and refined skills. This time, Breeze has collaborated with Sendai to showcase 10-meter-long colorful streamers in Taiwan and Japan simultaneously, becoming a highlight for photos.

Not only that, but this event also specially invites the limited-time group formed by King Cream Soda members Gerappa, ZZROCK, and Hard Birds to perform in Taiwan. They will dance to the “Yo-kai Bump Song” from "Yo-kai Watch", with two performances. The first 100 attendees at each session will also have the chance to receive a free can of Blue Bottle cold brew coffee.
