Abstract

Tourism is about relieving or disconnecting ourselves from the daily crowdedness of life, and it sometimes involves experiencing new things and moving or visiting a new place The popularity of a tourist spot is sometimes based on some factors; one of them is how society offers a unique experience exclusive to some destinations. This research aims to give another perspective on Japan`s tourism magnet over a growing community called Kemono Community that has significantly growing attention to their events and day to-day life. Their uniqueness lies in their art and colorful costumes that represent their individuality, and each of them is one of a kind, giving an iconic attraction when they hold activities such as, dancing, singing, art markets, and conventions. This community multiplies and spreads across nations, creating their own unique culture mixed with local customization, creating tourist attractions for the community and beyond. By taking a case study of how the Kemono Convention was held outside of Japan, especially in Indonesia at the Indonesia Weekend Anthro Gathering 2024 Jakarta, the results of this study are expected to give a new perspective on how a community can give impact to help growing tourism.
