Business Overview
Night markets are popular in Asia, including Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam, and have been noted as both tourist attractions and a source of local night culture. Taking note of this, a Tokyo version of the night market will be held in Yoyogi Park, located in the heart of Shibuya and Harajuku, Tokyo. With live music, DJs, and an art space curated by Shibuya Art, which is run by LD&K, the event will be held in October 2023 and May 2024, showcasing the current culture of Tokyo.
