Earth Garden Summer Festival

This is a two-day outdoor market where the food, workshops, and products on offer all promote ecological living—so you can feel good about attending, and what you bring home. The event square will also have a stream of musical performances spanning both days.

Mi Casa Es Su Casa Exhibition and Workshop

Coinciding with the rainy season, this exhibition features an interactive installation centered around umbrellas. Visitors can admire the artwork on display, or even create umbrella art of their own!

Mt. Takao Beer Mount

If you like your beer gardens with a sweet view, try the one atop Mt. Takao—the highest beer garden in Tokyo. Make sure you go hungry and thirsty though, it’s an all-you-can-drink deal (don’t worry, there’s more than beer) accompanied by an all-you-can-eat buffet.
