The organisers of the Aichi-Nagoya 2026 Asian Para Games today unveiled the mascot. Aichi is known for its water systems and beautiful bays, as well as it is leadership in manufacturing culture.
The mascot uses the water in Aichi as inspiration and acts as a counterpoint to the Asian Games mascot “Honohon” which is inspired by fire.
Taking inspiration from the curves of the Games’ emblem, the mascot’s design incorporates swirling and curvilinear patterns, creating a perfect harmony.
Mr. Majid Rashed, President of the Asian Paralympic Committee, commented;
“The unveiling of the mascot is always an exciting moment as it signifies that the games are getting closer. The mascot selection was narrowed down from 185 submissions which shows that there is already strong interest in the Aichi-Nagoya 2026 Asian Para Games. This fantastic mascot will I’m sure help to build on this. I congratulate everyone involved in its creation.”
