During the collaboration period, “Sumikko Points” will be set up in various locations in the city and introduced in leaflets and on the official Sumikko Collaboration website. Photos taken at Sumikko Point will be presented to 100 lucky winners of a drawing for an original acrylic stand if they follow the official Twitter account (@sumikko_335) and post their photo with the hashtags “#Sumikkomachi Collaboration” and “#Shimonoseki”.
In addition, posters and panels will be posted at various locations in Shimonoseki City from June 1, where you can get original smartphone wallpaper. You can look for them while touring Sumikko Point.
