In Japanese, nyan is the sound a cat makes, but this festival (for cat lovers, by cat lovers) will get plenty of humans purring, too.
What happens?
There will be around 500 booths filled with cat-inspired products: posters, paintings, mugs, mittens with kittens — you name it.
Suggested Activity

Tickets
You might be confused why the on-the-door ticket is cheaper (at ¥500, cash-only) than advanced sales; that is because they don’t start selling them till 1 p.m. on the day. So if you want to get there from 11 a.m, you need an advanced ticket for ¥600. Children under 6 years old enter free.
Organizers may cancel events, alter schedules, or change admission requirements without notice. Always check official sites before heading to an event.Early
