San-X has teamed up with Rilakkuma for a book fair and collaboration cafe in Japan, celebrating the Rilakkuma Certification Exam 2027. The book fair begins November 13, 2026, with selected cafes offering themed food and drinks at the same time.
The book fair brings together exam guidebooks, related publications, and limited goods featuring newly drawn artwork of Rilakkuma and friends in school uniforms. Cafe locations are available at selected participating stores, with separate operating periods in Okayama and Iwate.
At Unomachi Coffee Shop Okayama Minami, the menu includes Rilakkuma and Kiiroitori’s Perfect Honey Toast for ¥1,200 and Korilakkuma and Chairoikoguma’s Reward Parfait for ¥1,300. Vicky’s in Kitakami serves themed doughnuts from ¥340, colorful float drinks for ¥650, and flavored popcorn for ¥300.
About the Rilakkuma Book Fair and Cafe
Chairoikoguma 10th Anniversary Site
Chairoikoguma’s 10th anniversary is highlighted with a dedicated website featuring a daily fortune challenge, a history of past themes, four-panel comics, and special wallpapers. The anniversary content adds another character-focused element to the Rilakkuma celebration.
The cafe program connects Rilakkuma’s relaxed food-and-snack theme with the upcoming certification exam.

The fair also offers practical study-related goods, including a certification charm and a good-luck amulet, alongside character accessories.
