This New Year’s may be radically different from the rest, but some things never change – including the custom of fukubukuro, or the “lucky” grab bags. Starting January 1, more than 50 stores in Roppongi Hills offer fukubukuro, from clothing retailers to patisseries (in addition to a universal sale!). These make for wonderful gifts: Africa Rose & Flowers, for example, sells mystery bundles of vases and flowers; and Kakitobai Arms Men’s Grooming Salon offers a skin- and haircare set.
On New Year’s Day, the Roppongi Hills Arena hosts Japanese drum and lion dance performances, and admission to the Tokyo City Sky View Deck is free.
