The 61st Shimonoseki City University University Festival "Maguan Festival" was held for two days, November 12 (Sat) and 13 (Sun), 2022.

　The event was held for the first time in three years due to the influence of COVID-19 infection. This year, only students and faculty members conducted this program to prevent infection.

　"Welcome to Corona! Shining City University student! Under the slogan "~ distance is far away, heart is close ~", students who have never experienced the Maguan Festival started preparing for the event from scratch. In some cases, university festivals that took measures against infection in COVID-19 infection must be restricted, and I thought about how we could realize a fulfilling university festival like a university student.

　On the day of the university festival, in old-fashioned projects such as snatching and shooting, I returned to my childhood and saw a lot of innocent smiles. At the haunted house, I was surprised at the high quality enough to hear screams outside. Rakugo vaudeville, live performances, karaoke competitions, dances and performances were held in Student Welfare Hall. At the bingo tournament, where people who won the bingo card can participate around three projects, luxurious prizes were lined up and the venue was a great success.

　Although it was a university festival that was smaller than usual, the campus was crowded with lively and fun students. The student's voice was impressive, saying, "I didn't cheer on the campus during the COVID-19 pandemic, so I heard everyone's cheers and almost tears came out."

　I think that this Maguan Festival will further promote student exchange and activities.
　
　I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all of you for your understanding and cooperation in holding the Maguan Festival.
