The Setouchi Triennale is a contemporary art festival held every three years on the islands of the Seto Inland Sea. Launched in 2010, it lasts 100 days and is divided into spring, summer and fall sessions, allowing visitors to enjoy the Setouchi region in different seasons. The Triennale is one of Japan’s foremost international art festivals, attracting about one million people from Japan and overseas.
Site specific works serve as guides for discovering each island and venue, including the scenery, history, culture, lifestyle, local industries, and cuisine. They also serve as a portal for interaction with artists, residents and volunteer supporters. This approach has won the Triennale many ardent fans.
The Triennale has also won international acclaim as a novel approach to tourism, appearing in many well-known magazines and media overseas.
To present the diverse charms of the Setouchi region and contribute to its revitalization, Setouchi Triennale 2025, the sixth triennial and the first to be held since the end of the COVID-19 global health emergency, will be expanded to include the coastal towns of Shido, Tsuda, Hiketa, and Utazu, bringing the total number of participating areas to 17.
