Sonic 35th Anniversary Exhibition Opens at Ikebukuro PARCO FACTORY
The exhibition puts Sonic's production documents, including specification roughs and concept art, on public display, which is documentation of the series' development process rather than a merchandise event.

Sega's Sonic 35th anniversary exhibition, SONIC the Exhibition -ACROSS GENERATIONS, runs from October 9 to November 1, 2026, at Ikebukuro PARCO Main Building 7F PARCO FACTORY. The show approaches the series through games, characters, design, music, and art, with archive displays, production materials, and collaboration works by 16 contemporary artists including Yusuke Nakamura and Taku Inoue.
Beyond the archive wall of game software across the series, the exhibition keeps a corner of production materials: specification roughs, concept art, and a script signed by a voice actor. Photography is banned in that corner, so the documents can only be seen by attending in person.
Another room holds collaboration art between Sonic and 16 contemporary artists, among them Yusuke Nakamura and Taku Inoue. Some pieces are scheduled to be sold, with the sales method to be announced later. Media saw the show at an October 8 preview.
