Luxembourg National Day at Expo 2025 Osaka

On 30 May 2025, Luxembourg will mark its official National Day at Expo 2025 Osaka. As part of the Expo’s tradition, each participating country is given a dedicated day to highlight its identity, culture, and values. Also for Luxembourg, this is a unique opportunity to present itself and its creative talent.

The day begins with an official ceremony at the National Day Hall “Ray Garden” at 11:00, attended by distinguished guests from Luxembourg and Japan, including His Royal Highness the Grand Duke of Luxembourg, the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Foreign Trade, Xavier Bettel, and Minister of Defence, for Mobility and Public Works, Gender Equality and Diversity, Yuriko Backes, accompanied by the Commissioner general of the Luxembourg Pavilion, André Hansen, and a business delegation headed by the Luxembourg Chamber of Commerce.

At 4 p.m., all Luxembourg nationals and residents who are on the Expo site that day are warmly invited to the Luxembourg Pavilion for a get-together.

In the evening, visitors can look forward to the cultural highlight of the day: the concert-performance Echoes of Tomorrow at 19:00, publicly accessible with free entry at the National Day Hall “Ray Garden”. This unique creation brings together three renowned artists from Luxembourg—Francesco Tristano, Pascal Schumacher, Jill Crovisier, and Japanese dancer Maika Fujii—for a cross-disciplinary performance that merges music and dance in an immersive experience.
