Nissan Motorsports & Customizing to Host AOG Shonan Homecoming Meeting 2026 and NISMO Festival 2026

July 31, 2026

Nissan Motorsports & Customizing Co., Ltd. (NMC) today announced that it will host AOG Shonan Homecoming Meeting 2026 and NISMO Festival 2026.

The AOG Shonan Homecoming Meeting is an owner event held to express NMC's appreciation to customers who own vehicles customized and developed by the company. The event provides opportunities not only for owners to interact with one another, but also to engage directly with NMC staff. Vehicles delivered from NMC's home base in Chigasaki, located in the Shonan area of Kanagawa Prefecture, gather once again in their place of origin, giving rise to the event's "homecoming" concept.

The NISMO Festival is a fan appreciation event held to thank Nissan and NISMO supporters for their continued enthusiasm. The festival brings together fans from across Japan to experience Nissan's motorsports heritage, current racing activities and future challenges, while enjoying the unique appeal of the NISMO brand.

Both events are pioneers in their respective categories, having helped establish the concepts of manufacturer-hosted owner gatherings and motorsports fan appreciation events in Japan. The AOG Shonan Homecoming Meeting will be held for the 19th time since its launch in 2004, while the NISMO Festival will mark its 26th edition since first being held in 1997.

Through these two events, NMC will showcase its unique strengths in both customization and motorsports, offering visitors a variety of engaging experiences and activities.
