Time Out says

Major music label Universal Music opened its very first concept store in one of Tokyo’s busiest neighbourhoods. Located on Harajuku’s world-renowned Takeshita street, it’s a place where fans of local and international artists can shop for merchandise and participate in exclusive music-inspired experiences.

The store always features a specific artist, with the line-up changed regularly. First up is legendary rock band the Rolling Stones.

To highlight the Stones, the basement is dedicated to music-related merch and clothing from the group’s latest album, Hackney Diamonds. On the first and second floors, you’ll find items from RS No.9, a fashion brand focussed on the band, while the third floor is hosting experiential activities such as photo booths, a digital message board, and a stall where you can purchase a can of lemon squash or oolong tea with an exclusive Rolling Stones logo plus the date and place of purchase.

Super Takanaka Pop-up in Harajuku

2026 is shaping up to be a monumental year for jazz-fusion icon Masayoshi Takanaka, who has captured the hearts of young millennial and Gen Z fans around the globe with sold-out shows on his world tour. This year also marks the 50th anniversary of his solo debut, and what better way to celebrate than with a Super Takanaka pop-up taking over Harajuku’s Takeshita Street? Running from October 21 to November 1 at the Universal Music Store Harajuku, the curated exhibition features Takanaka’s iconic guitars, spectacular large-format photographs from his 2026 World Tour, and a host of displays showcasing the artistry, imagination and unmistakable style that have defined his illustrious career. Be sure to snap a photo with a replica of his iconic red surfboard guitar at one of the photo spots, then soak up his feel-good vibes with screenings of concert footage. The line-up of original merch includes album cover T-shirts and hoodies (from ¥6,000). Since it's expected to be packed, reservations (free) are essential.
