Positives:

  • Easy transport: Take the Osaka Monorail or JR line to Banpaku-Kinen-Koen Station for direct site access.
  • Interactive exhibits: Many pavilions let you co-create ideas using AR and VR tools.

Challenges:

  • Peak-hour crowds: Popular pavilions can have waits over 60 minutes after 11 am.
  • Weather exposure: Much of the Grand Ring is uncovered; sun and rain can affect comfort.

Visiting Expo 2025 has been nothing short of inspiring. Every pavilion offers a glimpse into the future, but the Saudi Pavilion truly stands out! It’s an unforgettable journey that blends tradition with innovation, and leaves you with a deep appreciation for Saudi Arabia’s vision, culture, and achievements. ✨ Don’t miss the “Wonder of Arabia” area within the pavilion — it’s a breathtaking space t...

It's true what people are saying and experiencing. Just returned after a two day visit to expo. I had a good time, I made the most of it, but it's terribly run, horrible lottery system, and frustrating lack of access to most of the signature pavilions. I planned over three months in advance. I've been to two previous expos, and I still was left frustrated. Some tips. Buy tickets early and sign up ...

Listen, the Pavilions are amazing! They are amazing to look at, which is most likely the only thing you are going to see. It is run horribly. We put in for our lotteries and got 1, that's it, most of all the others or at least good one are reservation only. Website is garbage. Our future is going to be in trouble with this crew trying to run it. Wait times on some "Walk in" Pavilions had over ...
