Saturday



Park Yoga
Today is the final Saturday session in Tokyo Midtown's current Park Yoga season. Head to the Roppongi landmark at 9am for a class with veteran instructor and Tokyo Yoga founder Mamoru 'Chama' Aizawa. Read more


Zombie Walking
Even the living dead need to get a little sunshine from time to time. Tokyo's zombie enthusiasts are having a get-together in Yoyogi Park this afternoon, complete with gory facepaint and (simulated) flesh-eating. Read more


2 Pianos 4 Hands
Anyone who's ever taken music lessons should be able to relate to this hit Canadian comedy. Ivory-tinkling actors Richard Greenblatt and Ted Dykstra return to Tokyo with the play they last performed here 8 years ago. Read more


Rinko Kawauchi
Her 'ability to turn the mundane into the extraordinary and poetic' earned Rinko Kawauchi a place on the shortlist for this year's Deutsche Börse Photography Prize. Check her dazzling new show as it opens today. Read more


Sintok Singapore Film Festival
Tokyo's very own Singaporean film fest returns this weekend, with a program showcasing some of the big names from the city-state's emerging movie industry, including Royston Tan and Ho Tzu Nyen. Read more


Metamorphose Spring 12
Revenge is sweet: The Flaming Lips, Orbital, Galaxy 2 Galaxy and a host of others head to Makuhari Messe for an all-day and -night party, in what's effectively a replay of last September's cancelled Metamorphose fest. Read more


Benjamin Skepper
High-tech cellist and harpsichordist Benjamin Skepper unveils his new album with a champagne-fuelled, surround-sound performance in the unlikely setting of Shibuya's Konno Hachimangu Shrine. Read more


Funktaxi feat. Matthew Styles
Hit Warehouse702 tonight for a deep house masterclass from one of the pros: Matthew Styles, ex-Crosstown Rebels manager, feted remixer, and one of the only DJs who followed his dad into the family business. Read more


Junior Vasquez in Tokyo 2012
When he played at Eleven last September, there were 'sweat and tears' on the dancefloor. Expect more of the same as New York house stalwart Junior Vasquez returns to the club for another marathon session. Read more


Womb presents W feat. Sasha
Sasha earned some major props last year, when he headed to Tokyo at a time when many of his peers were still shunning the city. The quintessential 'superstar DJ' is back this weekend for another all-nighter. Read more


Dragon Rock feat. Diplo
Still the most controversial 'random ass white dude' in dance music (sorry, Skrillex), Wesley 'Diplo' Pentz stops by at Sound Museum Vision for a date with local party fiends Sonpub, Habanero Posse and Wise. Read more


Magnificent feat. Paul van Dyk
Sasha isn't the only superstar DJ working the crowds in Tokyo tonight: trance titan Paul van Dyk will be headlining at Ageha, in support of his new (and rather misleadingly titled) album, Evolution. Read more
