The special exhibition 「バレーボール超体験空間 Haikyuu!! On The Court」 (the ultimate volleyball experience space), which lets fans of the Haikyuu!! anime fully immerse themselves in the world of volleyball, is about to open its doors. It begins at Dojima River Forum in Osaka from 27 June 2026, followed by Bellesalle Roppongi in Tokyo from 7 August 2026.

The organizers have now revealed the venue floor plan on the official website, along with full details of every experience zone inside the event — and also released a look at the “high school student guide” orientation held at Karasuno High.

Orientation at Karasuno: The Student Guides Report for Duty

The event features “high school student guides” who look after visitors and convey the appeal of volleyball. At Karasuno High, the orientation attendees are Hinata Shoyo, Kageyama Tobio, Tsukishima Kei and Nishinoya Yu.

In the “Jump” video exhibition zone, Kageyama listened intently to the explanation before remarking, “I learned a lot.” When the “Aim for the Top!!” challenge zone was announced, Hinata immediately declared, “I won’t lose!” with burning fighting spirit.

Tsukishima offered a real athlete’s perspective: “Jumping that high during a match is exhausting — I hope visitors get to feel that too.” As the senior, Nishinoya had to quickly apologize to the staff on behalf of his juniors who bickered during the talk. The mood was warm and fun throughout. The full orientation can be viewed on the “SPECIAL” page of the official website.

Event Structure: Three Areas — “Jump · Hit · Connect”

The event is divided into three main areas: “Jump (飛ぶ)”, “Hit (打つ)” and “Connect (繋ぐ)”. Each area has both a video exhibition and a hands-on zone, so visitors can “watch · learn · move” through all three stages.

Upon entering, visitors are greeted by an opening video featuring newly recorded voice work from 12 characters, full of energy and life.

“Jump (飛ぶ)” Area

In the video exhibition zone, Kuroo, Kozume, Yaku and Bokuto together analyze the play of top-level athletes on the theme of “jumping,” using characters such as Oikawa (the model for Kageyama’s serve), Ushijima (who can power through a three-man block), and Miya Atsumu (a highly skilled setter) as examples.

The hands-on zone “Aim for the Top!! Jump Challenge!!” is split into two sub-areas: a CHALLENGE AREA where visitors compete in jumping against the highest-jumping characters in the series, and a FREE AREA for taking jump photos alongside the characters. There is also a giant tapestry exhibition on the “jump” theme, complete with explanations of correct jumping form.

“Hit (打つ)” Area

This zone focuses on the developing combination of Hinata and Kageyama, with characters such as Hinata, Kageyama, Tsukishima, Nishinoya, Oikawa and Ushijima retracing the story from Season 1 to the Battle of the Garbage Dump, digging deep into the thoughts and background behind each moment.

“Synchro Court” is the highlight of this area. Visitors experience the duo’s thrilling combination plays on a real court, viewable from multiple angles with spectacular video effects. The image exhibition features giant tapestries of Kageyama, Kozume, Miya Atsumu and Miya Osamu.

“Connect (繋ぐ)” Area

This area is led by Miya Atsumu and Miya Osamu, the talented twins of Inarizaki, who guide visitors into Inarizaki’s world with fun banter in the Kansai dialect. It also showcases the super plays of Nishinoya (Karasuno’s guardian), Yaku Morisuke (Nekoma’s pillar) and Kita Shinsuke (Inarizaki’s captain), as well as Hinata’s diving and foot receives.

The hands-on zone “ガチレシーブバトル! (Gachi Receive Battle!)” lets visitors try receiving serves from the series’ top big servers, Oikawa and Miya Atsumu. The system measures receiving accuracy and shows a score when the challenge ends. There is also a giant tapestry of Nishinoya and Yaku, plus a “full-body” photo panel in a libero pose.

Ending Area

The event closes with a zone displaying each character’s uniform and memorable lines. After experiencing “Jump · Hit · Connect,” visitors can feel the weight and meaning of those words even more deeply.
