Umeshu (plum wine) is one of Japan’s most popular drinks, known for its sweet and tart flavor.

You can purchase tickets in advance, on the Yushima Plum Wine Festival website or on the door. Both cost ¥2,500.

Suggested Activity
Mount Fuji Day Trip with Private Driver
Spend a day exploring Mount Fuji and the area around it with this private, fully customizable tour - from all around Kawaguchiko Lake and up to the Mount Fuji Fifth Station.

The festival operates using “umesen” — a unique type of currency for the stalls. You’ll be given a set number with your ticket and can purchase more as you run out. Umeshu cups will set you back anywhere from 1 to 7 umesen, depending on the quality and vintage. We’d recommend buying advance tickets as you recieve 30 umesen, whereas door tickets only receive 25.

Organizers may cancel events, alter schedules, or change admission requirements without notice. Always check official sites before heading to an event.
