Cow Parade originated in Switzerland in 1998. Cow and bull figures decorated by local artists were displayed on the streets, and the event generated so much interest that it attracted numerous sponsors and donations. Since then, Cow Parade has traveled to a number of major cities including New York and Paris, drawing phenomenal crowds each time.
The Tokyo-Marunouchi Cow Parade 2008 will take place this coming autumn, the third time this event has come to Tokyo. It will feature entries by young Art Award Tokyo 2008 prizewinners, including pupils from junior high schools in Chiyoda Ward, and also includes cow figures decorated by prominent personalities such as entertainer Shoko Nakagawa, architect Kengo Kuma and art director Kashiwa Sato. Eight calves (Mini Moos) will join the 65 life-sized fiberglass cattle figures in the parade, decorating and adding color to the Marunouchi office district.
At the special cow shop inside Marunouchi Cafe "Ease" on the 1st floor of the Marunouchi Building, as well as at Marunouchi Loft on the 4th floor of the same building, original cow goods will be for sale. At the end of the festival, a charity event will be held to auction off the cows that decorate the streets of the district.
