Notice regarding the Hirakata Expo PR event and
invitations/special offers for Hirakata citizens
for the Suntory Sunbirds matches on 3/2 and 3/3
Updated January 31, 2024
Thank you very much for your continued support of the Panasonic Panthers.
On Saturday, March 2, and Sunday, March 3, we will be holding a Hirakata Expo (HIRAKATA EXPO) PR event outside the Panasonic Arena during the Panthers home games (against the Suntory Sunbirds). On the day of the event, we are planning to have stalls and booths set up by co-creation members of the Hirakata Expo. We will also have a large LCD monitor installed so you can enjoy the heated matches inside the arena in real time. In our hometown of Hirakata City, we have launched "Hirakata Expo," a unique city initiative aimed at further enhancing the city's appeal, revitalizing the local economy, and increasing attachment to the city through partnerships with many citizens, companies, universities, and organizations, taking the 2025 Osaka-Kansai Expo as an opportunity.
We have also prepared invitation and discount programs as follows.
We hope you will come to Panasonic Arena and enjoy the booths.
