Midtown Ice Rink
Last chance for some outdoor skating—the Midtown Ice Rink season wraps up on Sunday, March 1st. This Girls’ Day festival honors the good health of girls by sending dolls down the Sumida River by boat, which in turn carries away any bad luck. Starts at 11:30 am. This festival takes place at Hanegi Park, which has around 650 plum blossom trees. On weekends (Feb 29-Mar 1 being the last one) the park hosts vendors selling plum-themed food and puts on some family-friendly entertainment. A popular monthly flea market (next to the UNU Farmer’s Market) where you can pick up vintage clothing, vinyl, craft coffee and more. Please note that this event has now been postponed. Check our events section for updates on the next one! Why not spend a day exploring the (semi) wilds of one of Tokyo’s best-loved mountains?
