Doraemon’s official date of birth is on September 3, 2112. Which means that 2012 marks the start of the one hundred year countdown to his birthday! This summer from August 14 to September 16, Harbour City will be hosting the 100 Years Before the Birth of Doraemon exhibition, as well as the Concept Expo: Gadgets in the Future at Gallery by the Harbour.

Inspired by Doraemon’s secret gadgets, 100 Years Before the Birth of Doraemon invited creative parties from around the world to participate. Artists from Hong Kong, China, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, Spain, Sweden and more were each on hand to create and design 30 original gadgets. Each design has been directly influenced by Doraemon’s own futuristic world.
