National Azabu’s Halloween Celebration in Hiroo
This October, National Azabu, an international supermarket located in the vibrant Hiroo area of Tokyo, is excited to announce its upcoming Halloween event planned for
October 25th (Saturday) and 26th (Sunday). This festive occasion aims to bring smiles to the children in our community and is designed to celebrate the rich multicultural landscape of Hiroo, which is home to numerous embassies and people from various nationalities and cultures.
Event Background
National Azabu was founded with the vision of not only delivering international products but also sharing diverse cultures with Japan. Even when Halloween was not widely recognized in Japan back in 2000, the supermarket started hosting Halloween events to introduce this festive occasion to the local community. Over the years, these events have grown in popularity, becoming cherished autumn traditions that families look forward to annually.
This year's event is particularly special as it marks the
return of the in-person costume contest after six years, following the pandemic's disruptions. This gives more children the opportunity to engage in the festivities and showcase their creative costumes.
