Yoyogi Park Events Square

There’s a doggie fest in Yoyogi Park Events Square for three days from April 10 to April 12 with over 90 booths selling treats, toys and accessories for your furfriend from 10am to 5pm (1pm-7pm on Friday). While details for the 2026 event are yet to be fully announced, expect to see dog yoga classes, professional photo sessions, eating competitions, health checks and even a café area to enjoy a meal from one of its food trucks serving human and dog-friendly food. Not to worry if you don't have your own canine friend, as you can meet therapy dogs and rescue dogs. There'll also be quizzes, games and performances on stage, so even if you're more of a cat person, this little outing should still make for a productive (or at least, entertaining) afternoon.

Since starting in the US in 1970, Earth Day has spread to around 170 countries. It's celebrated every year in Tokyo with this festival at Yoyogi Park, which takes place on April 18 and 19.  You'll find non-profit organisations and charity groups of all kinds setting up shop, as well as plenty of stalls selling eco-friendly and sustainable lifestyle goods, clothes, handmade accessories and organic foods. Expect a massive gathering of eco-conscious Tokyoites, and don’t forget to bring your own shopping bag. There will also be live performances over the weekend. You can catch sets by artists including solo artist Xiangyu, singer Tokiko Kato, acoustic and folk duo Ooame and many more. You can see the full list of artists on the website.
