Japan's unique interactive exhibition, the 'Unko (Poop) Museum,' is opening a new permanent location. Operators T-Museum and KAYAC announced that 'Unko Museum Yokohama Bay' will open on August 1 on the second floor of Yokohama World Porters. This will be the fourth permanent exhibition space, following those in Tokyo, Nagoya, and Okinawa, with ticket sales having begun on July 9.

The new Yokohama Bay location features an 'Unko Love' concept, with a pink-themed space designed to enhance interactive content that visitors can see, touch, and photograph. Upon entry, guests can create their own unique poop character via the 'My Unko Maker' and explore various photo zones and interactive exhibits throughout the venue.

Gaming elements have also been significantly expanded. The 'Hun Game Center' within the exhibition offers five types of minigames, including new content exclusive to Yokohama Bay. The newly introduced 'Push It! Unko Animal' is a competitive game for visitors, while the cooperative 'Unko Journey' allows guests to work together to pilot a poop-themed hot air balloon and explore the world of Unko.

The museum's signature 'Unko Volcano' has also been revamped into the 'Unko Love Volcano.' It features a display where two giant volcanoes erupt in response to the 'Unko Love' energy of the visitors. Other popular existing attractions will also be available, such as games where visitors throw poop to break walls or make flowers bloom, and an experience where a poop character grows in size based on the volume of the visitor's voice.

Limited-edition merchandise will also be sold at Yokohama Bay. Visitors can purchase a variety of character goods, including headbands, plushies, stationery, and bags, some of which are exclusive to the Yokohama Bay location.

Since its debut as a limited-time event in Yokohama in 2019, the Unko Museum has become a leading Japanese interactive brand, gaining immense popularity and expanding to Tokyo, Nagoya, and Okinawa, as well as internationally to Melbourne and Shanghai. With cumulative visitor numbers exceeding 2.5 million, the opening of Yokohama Bay is particularly significant as it marks the museum's return to its original birthplace as a permanent exhibition.
