Yukata de Gin-bura Festival 2018

Since the closing of Ginza-dori to traffic in August 1970 as the first vehicle-free promenade in Japan, we have been holding events under the name of Holiday Promenade on Chuo-dori each year when it closes to traffic to commemorate the vehicle-free promenade and give visitors to Ginza a day of summer fun.
The Yukata de Gin-bura Festival is one part of this Holiday Promenade that was started in 2007 to have people come to Ginza wearing a yukata, that is also a special summer tradition, and enjoy a moment of coolness.
This year, for our 12th Yukata de Ginbura, we will host a extended version of the “Dai Ginza Bon-odori – featuring booths sponsored by renowned stores in Ginza –” which was held for the first time last year with great success. The event will be held as a part of the pre-night on Saturday, August 4 as well as on Sunday, August 5, the main “Yukata de Ginbura” event day. We look forward to welcoming you to enjoy summertime in Ginza in your yukata!

Please access the special website for details.
