Minne Handmade Market

Representing over 170,000 artists, Japan's largest handicraft market deals in everything from bags and clothing to chopsticks and brooches, and now puts on its most massive sales bash yet. Taking over Big Sight for three days in April, the Minne Handmade Market will see over 3,000 booths set up, so finding something you like is pretty much guaranteed. The tickets (¥1,200, ¥1,000 if bought in advance) are valid for all three days and re-entry is allowed throughout.
