Make the summer vibes linger just a little longer by spending as much time outdoors – as the rain allows – and hitting some festivals. There’s lots going on at Yoyogi Park on Saturday and Sunday, between a Southeast Asian-themed festival (think of all the food!) and an antique market. You can kick off the weekend with a bottle of bubbly (from a vending machine, no less) and a movie screening at Tokyo Midtown on Friday night, or opt for the horror film festival if you’re in for some chills. Take your pick:
