The Exciting 'Stars and Sun Market' to Be Held in July 2025!

The Joyful Stars and Sun Market Announced for July 2025

This summer, the vibrant and captivating outdoor event, "Stars and Sun Market," will bring joy to Tokyo, thanks to the innovative initiatives of the Tokyo Night Market team. After the successful fourth edition in May 2025, which drew approximately 140,000 eager attendees, this event promises to build on its previous popularity.

The Tokyo Night Market has gained significant recognition, being featured on major Japanese television shows like Nippon Television's "Shu-ichi" and TBS's "Nスタ." Not only did these media outlets spotlight the bustling night market, but cultural platforms such as "Time Out Tokyo" and social media channels have showcased its photogenic and shareworthy ambiance, captivating the interest of urban explorers and food enthusiasts alike.

New Location, New Vibes

For this upcoming edition, the market will move to the picturesque Keyaki Namiki on the Harajuku side. This prime location, just a short walk from the Meiji-jingumae (Harajuku) station, is set to illuminate five enchanting summer nights, combining the essence of Tokyo with the allure of Asian night markets.

The market guarantees a rich array of food stalls and unique crafts, along with a diverse lineup of entertainment to captivate all ages and nationalities. Families, friends, and solo adventurers will discover a place that blends the best of tradition with modern flair.

Diverse Entertainment Awaits

Exciting live performances will take center stage, featuring traditional dances such as the Bon Odori, Awa Odori, and even Cambodian rock music. This multicultural lineup embodies the spirit of unity through art, transcending language barriers and inviting everyone to dance together.

Moreover, attendees can look forward to lively DJ booths, games reminiscent of traditional Japanese summer fairs, and captivating street performances, creating an immersive environment brimming with joy and excitement.

This year’s market marks a shift to a summer-centric celebration, moving away from its previous May and October schedule. The decision to host the "Stars and Sun Market" in July reflects the evolving landscape of Tokyo's night culture, aiming to offer an unforgettable experience that resonates through shared moments and lasting memories.
