Yoyogi Park Events Square

Japan’s biggest Cambodia Festival takes place over the Golden Week holidays at Yoyogi Park Events Square. This two-day celebration of Cambodian culture features traditional dance performances, plus roughly 70 stalls serving authentic Cambodian cuisine such as the refreshing Num banhchok, Angkor beer, handicrafts, and more. The festival takes place from 10am to 7pm on both days. Entry is free and you just pay for food and drink as you go.

One of the largest cultural celebrations in Yoyogi Park, the Thai Festival often benefits from lovely springtime weather. So join the crowds and fill up on Thai delicacies like pad thai, green curry and khao soi from a selection of Tokyo's Thai restaurants like Jasmine Thai and Krung Siam. Away from the food, there are plenty of stalls to browse, where you’ll find everything from handicrafts to bottles of Thai craft beer. There’s also live entertainment, featuring performances such as traditional dance, Thai pop and rock acts (including BNK48), martial arts demonstrations, and more. Both days have packed schedules and you can check the timetable on the website (pending update for 2026).

This festival at Yoyogi Park Events Square brings a taste of Japan’s southernmost prefecture of Okinawa to Tokyo on May 16 and 17. Okinawan food is a major part of the event and you can feast on the likes of soki soba, taco rice, spam onigiri and Blue Seal ice cream. You'll also be able to sip on Okinawa's Orion beer.  Take a break from the food to browse plenty of stalls where you can shop for colourful local goods from Okinawa, and get a good feel of Okinawa's unique culture and charm. There will also be fun activities like photo booths and a kids’ play area with inflatable bouncy houses. You can also catch live music from Okinawan performers including Kiyokazu from J-pop band Mongol800, Okinawan rapper Ritto and more. The full line-up of artists is expected to be announced in early May.
