1. Back From The Grave: Halloween Ball

For those who like to celebrate Halloween in style (with a healthy dose of mayhem), this punk-rock night should tick the boxes. With an incredible 50 bands performing, Back From The Grave has it all.

The show will take place in Kabukichō and will go from 12 p.m. till dawn on Saturday, and 12 p.m. till 10 p.m. on Sunday — that means an all-nighter and then some. There will also be DJs, burlesque, and other attractions.
