Game Information | FFVII 10th Anniversary Gallery

From August 31 through September 2nd, 2007, Square Enix hosted an exhibit celebrating Final Fantasy VII's tenth anniversary at the Aoyama Spiral Garden in Tokyo. This well-attended exhibit featured not only original production artwork, but also a timeline of FFVII milestones and previously released and upcoming merchandise.

The opening reception for the gallery on August 30th was attended by representatives from Square Enix and Sony, as well as press and fans. FFVII-themed drinks were served, and Ayaka performed her single "Why", the theme song from the then-upcoming Crisis Core.
