Halloween event before 2016

Today, I want to share some JAS Halloween stories with you. 

This story consists of three parts: before 2016, 2017, and after 2018.

 

Every year in October, JAS has held a Halloween event. 

Before 2016, JAS used a small venue like a community hall with a capacity of about 100 people. 

On the day of the event, we would decorate with electric props and various decorations from 3 p.m. until the start time at 6 p.m. 

Most of the decorations came from Tony's house  (he has huge collections).

In the video below, did you notice he had a toy-like megaphone?

At that time, JAS didn't have their own P.A. system. 

This was the first time I attended this event and encountered the cupcake culture.

After that, I saw cupcakes at many of their events.

They seem to really love it. 

This event became a major attraction for JAS and Iwakuni City.

 In 2017, its name changed from the Halloween Festival to the Halloween Carnival, and the venue was moved to a larger location.

 I'm going to write about it in  "Halloween in 2017."
