Toyama City
Toyama City (富山) is the largest city and capital of Toyama Prefecture in the Hokuriku Region of northern Chubu, Japan. As a former castle town with a rich history, Toyama has long been an important center for medicine and cultural exchange. The city’s strategic location along the Hokuriku Shinkansen makes it a convenient and popular stop for tourists traveling through the region. Visitors to Toyama can explore a variety of attractions, including historical sites, museums, and beautiful natural landscapes such as Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route. This iconic route offers stunning views of the Northern Alps and is a must-visit for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers.(link)

Conference site
The conference will be held in the Middle Hall of Toyama Aubade Hall, a venue ideally located in Toyama City, just a 3-minute walk from JR Toyama station. The hall, newly constructed and opened in the summer of 2023, boasts cutting-edge audio facilities.
The Middle Hall provides a spacious and comfortable setting, perfect for attendees to relax and focus during oral sessions. Adjacent to the hall is a foyer featuring a stunning atrium clad in white oak, where coffee breaks and poster sessions will be hosted.
Just across a small street from the venue, you’ll find the beautiful (Fugan Unga Kansui Park) complete with a tranquil canal and scenic views. It is the perfect place to relax and unwind during your free time at the conference.
Around Toyama Station, a variety of accommodations are available across a wide range of prices. However, due to the high number of tourists during the summer season—further increased by Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai (scheduled for 4th April – 10th October)—we strongly recommend booking your accommodation as early as possible.
