Shinagawa is often nicknamed the "gateway to Tokyo" thanks to its major train station and port facilities, making it a great place for easily accessible events. This July, the Shinagawa Summer Festival is set to take place at Shinagawa Intercity and Shinagawa Grand Commons, two venues which are located in close proximity to Shinagawa Station.
The five-day event has a wide array of activities, including numerous cultural performances (featuring music, dance, martial arts, and more), a sake booth area, hands-on workshops, and more.
Getting there
Shinagawa Intercity and Shinagawa Grand Commons are both located under 5 minutes on foot from Shinagawa Station. The station is served by various lines including the Tokaido Shinkansen, the JR Yamanote Line, and the Keikyu Main Line to name just a few.
