A Message from Welcome Tokyo: Why We Started "Local Friending" 💌

Looking for a Solo Attend International Party Tokyo? If you joined our event, we would love to hear your feedback! 20 years ago, the international party scene in Tokyo was quite different. Back then, many events had a strict atmosphere where people felt they had to act a certain way, and expats often stayed within their own circles. 💦

But we realized something important: There are so many international people who truly love Japan and want to build deep, lasting bonds with local Japanese people. 🌏✨ You don't just want "event friends"—you want "local friends" who live nearby and share your global mindset!

We wanted to create a space where you don't need to bring a friend to have a great time. A place where you can come at your own pace and leave with a new community. 🌿 That is why we customized the Solo Attend International Party Tokyo.

Even if you walk in alone, we want you to leave with a smile and a new group of friends to say "See you again!" to. 😊🌟


Weekly Schedule: Easy Solo Access 🗓️

No need to coordinate with anyone! Just show up whenever you feel like meeting new people. ✨

📍 Shinjuku / Takadanobaba (Every Thursday)

  • Time: 19:30 – 22:00 🌙

  • Vibe: Perfect for winding down after work and making local friends for the weekend. 🍻

📍 Shibuya (Every Sunday)

  • Time: 16:00 – 18:00 ☀️

  • Vibe: A chilled Sunday afternoon meetup to expand your social circle in the heart of the city. ☕✨


Why This is the Best Solo Attend International Party Tokyo for Solo Participants 🌈

  • Freedom of Pace: No pressure to bring a wingman! Come when you want, stay as long as you like. 🕊️

  • Real Local Bonds: Connect with locals who live and work in Tokyo—perfect for those staying long-term. 🏠🤝

  • Friendly Staff: Our professional organizers are always on-site to break the ice and introduce you to new people naturally! ✨😊
