The talented students at Tokyo University of the Arts are hosting one of the city's most titillating festivals this weekend featuring classical concerts, monster matsuri floats, an art market and more.
Highlights include a live performance and guest lecture from the violinist Naoto, who is scheduled to appear at the university's main stage from 3pm to 4pm on September 4. As for visual art presentations, don't miss the exhibition of matsuri (festival) floats, which will be on display every day at the school grounds. These floats are a regular feature of the annual festival, where students are tasked with the creative challenge of adding some contemporary flair to vessels that are traditionally used in ceremonial parades for Shinto rituals.
If you're looking to do a bit of shopping while you're there, art market pop-ups full of unique pieces to accent your home will be open every day from 9am to 5.30pm.
