Tips for Enjoying New Year’s Eve in Tokyo
- Trains: Instead of stopping around midnight, like the rest of the year, through the night on Dec 31 only, trains run all night, so you needn’t worry about missing the last train.
- Set off early: be sure to arrive in good time, as lots of events will get busy. Leave extra time to queue before you enter a venue, so you are counting down to the new year while waiting in a queue.
