Bandai brings CP-001 to Jump Festa and sets the time for NARUTO CARD GAME news
Japan’s December event now has concrete attractions: tutorials with a promo card, an official playmat and card-game news within Naruto’s stage programme. Here is what Bandai confirmed on November 2.

Jump Festa is becoming a more concrete milestone for NARUTO CARD GAME. In its November 2 announcement, Bandai confirms booth tutorials, CP-001 Chakra Card distribution and sales of the Arriving in 2027 playmat. The company also places upcoming game information inside Naruto’s Jump Super Stage programme.
Previously, the event was chiefly the destination for the next major update. Now visitors have a clearer idea of what to expect, while viewers have a specific stage window to follow. Despite the name Jump Festa 2027, the event takes place on December 19–20, 2026, at Makuhari Messe.

Two announced routes to CP-001
Participants in the booth tutorial receive one CP-001. Participation is limited to once per person. Depending on conditions, registration may close early or switch to numbered tickets, and promotional cards are available only while supplies last.
The card is also included in the gift for visitors in Japanese junior high school or below. This school-based eligibility should not automatically be replaced with a universal age cut-off; check the organiser’s conditions. The announcement does not promise that one person can combine both routes to receive additional copies.

The official visual shows Japanese card text and a SAMPLE watermark. It is a presentation image, not a photograph of a copy already distributed. No print run or new Jump Festa-stamped version is announced. A shared CP-001 code does not establish identical printing, distribution or market value across promotions.
The Arriving in 2027 playmat joins the programme
The listed merchandise is the official Arriving in 2027 playmat featuring Naruto and Sasuke. It costs ¥3,850 including tax, with a limit of one per person. Payments at the venue are cashless only.

Stock limits apply, and access to the merchandise area may be temporarily restricted to manage crowds. Bandai allows for possible sales outside this event, so the announcement should not be read as an absolute Jump Festa exclusive. The promotional image retains SAMPLE because the final product may differ.
A specific stage window for the next update
For readers following from home, the key development is explicit confirmation that NARUTO CARD GAME information is planned within the Naruto Jump Super Stage programme on Saturday, December 19, 16:55–17:25 JST. That is 08:55–09:25 CET in mainland Spain on the same date, an editorial conversion.
This is the full Naruto programme’s slot, not a promise of thirty minutes devoted entirely to the TCG. Bandai has not detailed the cards, rules or products to be shown. It does, however, settle a distinction in our previous coverage: the game’s connection to that stage is now explicitly official.
Admission is not the same as an activity reservation
Event admission is free but requires an advance application and invitation. General Jump NAVI applications run November 2–16, closing at 17:59 JST. Stage access and activity reservation conditions must be checked separately: an invitation into the venue does not guarantee a Super Stage seat.
The event opens 09:00–17:00, with last admission at 16:30, before the Naruto programme begins. Visitors should plan both their arrival and each activity’s conditions. General admission is not a confirmed tutorial booking or a reserved playmat purchase.
Why collectors should follow this milestone
The meaningful development is continuity before the planned worldwide June 2027 launch: Japanese visitors have another chance to play and encounter a physical promotion. Event items can document that early history, but limited on-site stock does not reveal a print run or predict later demand and prices.
December now combines a CP-001 participation opportunity with a scheduled official update. The complete card list, quantities and exact stage announcements remain unconfirmed. Our Jump Festa application guide and event page explain the next practical steps.
