The 25th Autumn Festival, an autumn tradition at Keio University Shonan Fujisawa Campus (SFC), was held on Saturday, October 8, and Sunday, October 9.

This year's concept was "CANVAS FOR SMILE," with the idea of turning SFC into a canvas that visitors could color in their own unique ways to bring smiles to their faces. An app was also developed to provide a campus map and a list of fun events. It also includes a playful touch: the first letters of the concept's words are an anagram of SFC.

The campus was decorated with a Halloween theme, and students in various costumes, such as jack-o'-lanterns, vampires, and Frankenstein's monster, entertained visitors. A costume contest was also held. On stage, performances by music and dance clubs and a comedy show livened up the opening of the Autumn Festival.

Although it was rainy at times, many families were seen, and the diverse lineup of food stalls and events was bustling with activity. At night, the moon peeked out, and for the finale, the traditional fireworks were launched, lighting up the autumn night sky.
