This year's market is designed to offer a vast array of delicately crafted items while providing ample space for attendees to enjoy the experience regardless of the weather.

A Look Back and Forward

Since its inception in 2016, the Marunouchi Street Market has become a cherished venue for both visitors and local residents, showcasing one-of-a-kind creations. The successful return of the market last year was met with enthusiasm, motivating Creema to elevate the event's scale significantly for 2026.

The event will feature a diverse range of exhibits, from intricate glass accessories to hand-painted ceramics and charming wooden toys. Additionally, food stalls with carefully sourced ingredients and workshops will ensure a fun and fulfilling experience for all attendees.
