Held under the theme of enjoying delicious food and drink before the heat of summer fully kicks in, the Caribbean Latin American Carnival is set to take place at Tokyo's Kinshi Park in early July.
There will be 20 different food vendors at the event, serving up everything from Jamaican jerk chicken to Argentinian Choripan and Mexican tacos, plus market stalls selling unique goods from Guatemala, Ecuador, Peru, and more. In addition, there will be DJs, steel pan drum performances, and dancers in gorgeous carnival costumes.
The event will be held rain or shine, and admission is free – but do bring some yen if you plan on purchasing food, drink, or market stall items.
Getting there
Kinshi Park is conveniently located just a minute on foot from Kinshichō Station's Exit 4, which is served by the JR Sōbu Line and Chūō-Sōbu Line, along with the Tokyo Metro Hanzomon Line.
