[What is Kanda Curry Grand Prix? ]

"Kanda Curry Grand Prix 2023" is a stamp rally held every year in the area related to "Kanda" in Chiyoda Ward, where more than 80,000 people participate during the period in which the Grand Prix is determined by fan voting. It's a big event. This year it will be held from August 1st (Tuesday) to December 20th (Wednesday).

From spiciness to survive the hot summer to winter to warm your body and soul, 142 participating stores have prepared their own curries and are waiting for you at Japan's No. 1 curry town "Kanda".

This time, it overlaps with the memorable timing of "Hokuto no Ken 40th Anniversary", and "Kanda Curry Grand Prix x Hokuto no Ken" will jack the participating curry shops and stamp rally participating spots.

[How this collaboration came about]

With the conviction that the combination of the spicy “heat” of curry, the “heat” of “Fist of the North Star”, and the “heat” of wanting to liven up the city of Kanda will “heat up” the Kanda Curry Grand Prix event. We decided to collaborate with three companies.

"Fist of the North Star" celebrates its 40th anniversary, and it has been decided to hold the largest original painting exhibition in history in October. It is also a collaboration with the hope of meeting future fans who will be able to learn about the work in a new way.

The unique bookstore "Shosen" in the Kanda area is also visited by customers who love "Curry" and "Fist of the North Star"! So we decided to develop and sell collaboration goods and provide character cards for the curry Grand Prix stamp rally.
