Key question: Where can you go outside the venues during the Asian Games?
The main official celebration and fan zone operating downtown during the Games is ONE ASIA WORLD. It will use Hisaya-odori Park, Oasis 21, and Sakae Hirobas as its venues and operate during the same period, from September 19 to October 4.
ONE ASIA WORLD’s standard operating hours are 11:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. However, these hours are a general standard and do not apply uniformly to the entire site; operating hours may vary by zone. General admission is free, but the HOSPITALITY LOUNGE is a paid area, so ONE ASIA WORLD should not be understood as being entirely free.
Live site: Operating hours differ on weekdays and weekends
The live site within ONE ASIA WORLD has separate operating hours. On weekdays, it operates from 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.; on Saturdays, Sundays, and public holidays, it operates from 11:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Therefore, a weekday daytime visit may fall before the live site opens, while on weekends and public holidays, its operating hours begin in the morning.
The live site schedule should be distinguished from ONE ASIA WORLD’s standard operating hours. Once you have chosen a date, check the weekday and weekend operating rules for the live site along with the operating hours of the zone you plan to visit, as hours may differ by zone.
ASIA MEETS NAGOYA: A separate event held during the day from September 21 to 23
ASIA MEETS NAGOYA is a separate event from ONE ASIA WORLD, with different dates and a different venue. It will be held from September 21 to 23, 2026, at the special event site in the central green space of Kinjo Pier, from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. While ONE ASIA WORLD is a fan zone operating across several downtown locations from September 19 to October 4, ASIA MEETS NAGOYA is a three-day program held at a designated venue.
The program includes stage events, a Nagoya-meshi fair, tile-craft workshops, and an en’nichi corner. Visitors should therefore check the event and date separately depending on whether their purpose is to watch the live site or participate in programs such as the Nagoya-meshi fair or tile-craft workshops.
Schedules and conditions to check before visiting
If you plan to visit ONE ASIA WORLD, choose a date between September 19 and October 4, the dates of the Games, and decide which of Hisaya-odori Park, Oasis 21, or Sakae Hirobas you will visit. Then check the operating hours for that zone, the live site’s operating hours, and whether you plan to use the HOSPITALITY LOUNGE.
If you choose ASIA MEETS NAGOYA, use its separate schedule as your reference: September 21–23, the special event site in the central green space of Kinjo Pier, from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
