Art, crafts, fashion, accessories and much more – it’s all here at the annual Handmade in Japan Festival, a massive two-day celebration of artisanal crafts and creativity. The event attracts over 3,000 artists, designers and craftsmen in addition to thousands of amateur DIYers from all over Japan.
Shop for one-of-a-kind items at the market, including clothing, homeware, handicrafts and interior decor. Or pick up a new skill at one of the many workshops – think lamp making, building a herbarium and jewellery craft. You can also watch live painting performances, drop in on the music shows, and fill up at the food stalls. It’s a full-day affair.
One-day tickets go for ¥1,500 (advanced ¥1,300) while two-day tickets are ¥2,500 (advanced ¥2,000). You can buy tickets in advance from Lawson Ticket, Seven Ticket, E Plus and KKDay.
