We get swept up in World Cup fever this month: as well as sharing the best places in Fukuoka to catch a World Cup match screening, we decided to explore Fukuoka’s local soccer scene too, with a rundown on our J2-League hometown team Avispa Fukuoka. Check our interviews with Avipsa’s new manager Pusnik, and three key players, plus home game schedule and giveaways! Meanwhile, we have a meal at D&Department, where good design meets good food, and interview local resident Wayne Macpherson (NZ) who spends his spare time making and marketing his own hot sauce “Pirisko”. Finally, it’s time to party like a Candian – our annual Fukuoka Canada Day Party returns to Tenjin Monolith on Jun. 28! Lobster, poutine, Canadian beer, outdoor BBQ, games, prizes and more! Plus a lucky draw to win a free flight to Vancouver on China Airlines. Pretty good deal, eh? See you there!!
