Children and adults alike were treated to a dose of Kiwi culture in Beppu.

A kapa haka group has taught an enthusiastic Japanese crowd the haka at an All Blacks fan event in Beppu today.

Children and adults alike were treated to a dose of Kiwi culture, packing into a large convention hall to meet All Blacks players and watch a kapa haka group performance.

Also on hand to perform was Kiwi band Six60, which belted out a number of the group's tunes to the delighted crowd.

The fan event was also attended by a number of All Blacks stars.

The All Blacks in attendance took time out to coach local youths some world class rugby skills.

Judging by the crowd reaction, many decked out in All Blacks gear, the New Zealand team will have lots of local support when they take on Canada at Oita Stadium tomorrow night.

Watch the event unfold in the videos above.
