TOKYO ISLANDOct 11 (Sat)–13 (Mon), Tokyo
Did you know there’s a vast green open field in Tokyo? It was used as a venue for the Tokyo Olympics, and its area is said to be roughly the size of 10 Tokyo Domes. It hosts Tokyo’s largest outdoor festival, packed with things to enjoy—music, camping, gourmet food, fireworks, and Tokyo’s night skyline. As a camp-in festival, you can even bring your pets and spend time together, and if you choose a campsite in the music area, you can enjoy the stage right from your own tent. It’s the kind of event you’ll want to join every year as a summer festival to make family memories.
