Artober Day 2 | Journey Across Japan A Retrospective Evening

October 5th 2024

The Journey Across Japan evening celebrated the sixth anniversary of this beloved series from Chris Broad’s Abroad in Japan YouTube channel. Fans filled the Hibiya Okuroji event space to join Chris and series producer Ian Rudd for an intimate and engaging session, where they reflected on favorite moments, shared behind-the-scenes stories, and offered a unique look into the making of this epic travel saga.

With over 90 million views across 65 episodes, Journey Across Japan has captivated audiences worldwide with its mix of adventure, humor, and unforgettable encounters—yes, including Anpanman! This special Artober event gave fans a chance to participate in a lively Q&A and experience exclusive clips, creating a memorable evening for all.

Artober 2024 was Artedly's first-ever multi-day event – an 11-day celebration of creativity held from October 4th to October 14th at Hibiya Okuroji, one of Japan Rail's flagship locations. Artober featured the works of 42 talented creators from our community in the gallery space, while each evening offered a unique event in the adjacent event space (of which this is one). From workshops and live talks to interactive art experiences, each day at Artober brought something truly special.
