Expo 2025’s overarching theme is “Designing Future Society for Our Lives”, focusing on building a better future for everyone through three lenses – “Saving Lives”, “Empowering Lives”, and “Connecting Lives”. The Organisers are anticipating 28.2 million attendees (3.5 million forecast to be international visitors) with at least 150 nations expected to participate.

At the Expo, the UK will present a modern, innovative, and uniquely British experience which inspires audiences from Japan and across the world to ‘Come Build The Future with us.’ 

Inspired by children’s building blocks and the potential for a small idea to change the world: every simple block, just like every little idea, has the potential to become something great, but the magic is in gathering these small pieces together.

The UK Pavilion will showcase Great Britain and Northern Ireland as a place of opportunity where the world's brightest minds come together to build solutions to the biggest global challenges. From the invention of the steam train to the world’s first carbon-neutral spaceport, visitors will be taken on an immersive journey through the past, present and future of great British innovation.
