Spice up your spring at this kink-friendly Tokyo event!
Looking for a Tokyo event this spring that’s more hardcore than a hanami party? Following a rainy Fetish Festival 24 in January, Fetish Festival (aka FetiFes) is back for its 25th iteration this month. On top of warmer weather, FetiFes 25 promises to bring red-hot stage performances and a bevy of bodacious guests and exhibitors! Spring is the season of growth and new beginnings. Swing by FetiFes, and maybe the seeds of a new kink will sprout within you!
Fetish Festival 25 is on Sunday, April 28th in Nihonbashi, Tokyo at the Mensho Kaikan event hall from 12:00-18:00 (12:00pm–6:00pm).
If you’re not a kinkster, don’t be fooled by this event’s name! Fetish Festival also welcomes non-sexual niche interests, with body modification, hard rock, horror, alternative fashion, and cult media enthusiasts also having a presence at the event. If you’re open-minded, respectful, and at least 18 years of age (photo ID required), anyone can join the fun at FetiFes!
Buying tickets and getting to FetiFes
FetiFes 25 will be at the Mensho Kaikan, an event hall in Nihonbashi, Tokyo. Event tickets can be pre-ordered through ticketing portal eplus (Japanese-language site), but they will also be sold at the event hall. Please refrain from lining up at the Mensho Kaikan before 11:00 as to not disturb local residents and neighboring businesses.

- A driver’s license
- A passport
- A Japanese residence card
- A Japanese My Number card

Many vendors at FetiFes will only accept cash, so make sure to have enough yen on your person. If you’re planning to do some serious shopping, stack those ¥10,000 bills in your wallet! There is a Family Mart convenience store (Higashi Nihonbashi Sanchome branch) with an ATM less than a minute away from the venue. Most convenience store ATMs take foreign cards, and you can also buy snacks and drinks if needed. Please note that eating and drinking inside the Mensho Kaikan will be prohibited.
After buying a ticket, you’ll receive a wristband that you must wear while at the event. If you need to step outside for any reason, showing the wristband at the front desk will allow you to re-enter the venue. FetiFes 25 will run continuously from 12:00 until 18:00 with no breaks.
Cosplay and outfits that show off skin are allowed, but genitalia and non-male nipples must not be exposed. Don’t forget to cover up outside of the event space! Also, smoking is prohibited on the premises of the Mensho Kaikan.
