50 years ago Momofuku Ando invented Cup Noodles, the first instant ramen to be served in cup form. To celebrate the half-century anniversary of this ultra-convenient food item, Shibuya Parco is hosting an exhibition titled "Spice Up Your Sense" which will display illustrations, photographs, three-dimensional works, and video works based on cup noodles by five artists.
If the fun art wasn't enough of an incentive to visit, there will also be a pop-up fashion event selling a variety of Cup Noodles themed apparel items, including t-shirts and bags.
Getting there
Shibuya Parco is located approximately 5 minutes on foot from Shibuya Station's Hachiko exit. The station is served by numerous lines including the JR Yamanote line, the Tokyo Metro's Ginza, Hanzomon, and Fukutoshin lines, and the Keio Inokashira line.
For those who opt to drive, paid on-site parking is available, and is charged at a rate of 320 yen per 30 minutes on weekdays, and 400 yen per 30 minutes on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays.
