【Sponsorship Opportunity】First Time Hosting in Japan – 2024 Mölkky World Championship in Hakodate

Be part of history as we host the first Mölkky World Championship 2024 in Asia and Japan.

As the host organisation, our mission is to create a welcoming and comfortable competitive environment for participants from both Japan and around the world. To achieve this, we are actively seeking sponsors who wish to support and contribute to the success of this event together.

The tournament will feature a participation scale exceeding 2,800 players, including players from Japan, Europe, and Asia. When taking spectators and event staff into account, the total attendance is estimated to be around 3,000 people. This makes it the largest event in Mölkky history, surpassing previous Mölkky World Championships held exclusively in Europe. The 2024 Championship will serve as a significant opportunity to draw increased attention to “Mölkky in Japan” from stakeholders both domestically and internationally, with inquiries for media coverage already received from multiple outlets. We believe that this event will be an excellent opportunity for sponsor companies to showcase brand PR and exposure in what promises to be a prime moment.
