JAPAN Fes

The roving, option-packed JAPAN Fes is one street food-centered extravaganza where tastebuds never grow bored, and in 2025 they are taking their cultural concept to new heights with more than 70 dates planned across the globe featuring more than 2,000 vendors and an astounding 1,000,000 attendees! In what’s undoubtedly now the world’s largest Japanese food festival, New York City plays a starring role, with a vast schedule of weekend events unfolding throughout October and November in New Rochelle (Oct. 4th), Chelsea (Oct. 5th), East Village (Oct. 18th, Nov. 8th, Nov. 15th) and the Upper West Side (Oct. 19th, Oct. 26th). There promises to be no shortage of sushi, ramen, hibachi, mochi, exotic street foods, and cultural performances, too. Who says you can’t experience the magic of Japanese cuisine right here in your back yard? Plan a visit (or five!) at japanfes.com/newyork/2025.
