Museum of Modern Art – Free Admission Day
The MOMAT is free this Sunday. The museum houses mainly Japanese works of the 20th century including a number deemed ‘Important Cultural Properties’ or masterpieces.
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! Tokyo is often described as busy, crowded and futuristic, but there are also traditional shrines and gardens where you can swap the hustle and bustle of the city for peace and quiet. A different way to tune into the city. 8 perfect picks, from parks to shopping streets. Tokyo events for Monday, April 15 to Sunday, April 21, 2024. You'll need more than a day — there are LOTS of things to try! Upcoming names include Baekhyun, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Iron Maiden — and more. Move over, cherry blossoms! These other blooms will take your breath away well into late spring. Light-ups have been extended, since the blossoms were so late this year. They've been teasing us — but looks like they're about to bloom, at last. A chance to see the infamous "penis festival", puppies, processions, and more!
