Tokyo Ramen Festa 2024

Formerly known as Tokyo Ramen Show, this food festival is exactly what it says on the bowl — lots and lots of ramen.

If you’ve ever wondered about all the different styles from around Japan, this is your chance to try them out.

Tickets

Entry to Komazawa Olympic Park is free, but tickets that are exchanged for a bowl of ramen costing ¥1,100 each.

You can purchase ramen tickets in advance from any 7-Eleven from Oct 1 — it is recommended to do this on busy days — or in the venue at a designated ticket booth. You cannot purchase ramen directly from the booth; you need a ticket.

Schedule 2024

The event is split into three parts (or acts) this year. Each will last for four days and feature 12 alternating vendors, 36 in total.

• The first part (Thursday, October 24 to Sunday, October 27) will feature stores that are highly recommended by organizations.
• Part two (Monday, October 28 to Thursday, October 31) features vendors that are participating for the first time.
• Finally, part three (Friday, November 1 to Monday, November 4) will feature ramen stores that have the longest lines at nationwide events.
