Founded in 1932, Shimizu Octo, Inc., is one of Japan’s premiere event production companies. We handle all aspects of events, ranging from design, planning and operations to security and comprehensive audiovisual production.
Through our work in events, we support some of the world’s leading artists by designing, producing and setting up stages, thereby facilitating nationwide dome tours, concerts, television and radio events, exhibitions and expos. We also are closely involved with baseball and soccer events, providing operational support and security in our work with a host of international sporting events and global conventions.
Our overriding aims are to operate events safely and smoothly, while helping as many people as possible to enjoy the event-going experience. In these ways, we have provided behind-the-scenes support for events over more than 70 years.
