Sanrio Puroland is celebrating its 30th Anniversary from Dec 7. To commemorate the occasion, they will have a retrospective live-streamed show on the eve of the festivities on their official YouTube channel, and they've already put up a special video promoting the festivities (see below).

It looks like Sanrio has really put a big effort into this, based on the scale of the video which has footage from around the world. According to the press release, "Puroland wants to bring smiles and energy to the ever-changing new world (...) and repaint the whole world with kawaii."
