One of Minato ward’s most popular festivals, the Mita Summer Carnival is happening on Saturday July 18 from 4pm to 9pm. Held along Mita Avenue, the festival kicks off with a marching band parade at 4pm, followed by a host of street performances.
As with all Japanese festivals, there will be classic matsuri games for kids, such as goldfish scooping and shateki shooting. Adults, on the other hand, will be well catered for with five ‘beer party’ zones scattered across Mita Avenue, all providing refreshing draft beer and meaty dishes.
