Shibuya has long been the glowing heart of Tokyo’s Halloween culture since the 2010s, establishing its reputation as the street-wide party — overflowing with hyper-spirited costumed crowds looking for a good time.
But as the Halloween chaos has increasingly escalated, Shibuya Ward has been cracking down on the festivities. The government-enforced initiative was introduced in 2019, and rules have gotten stricter by the year in the hopes of combating violence, vandalism, littering and other reported disturbances in the area.
This year, the ward has announced new measures in a campaign called “Kinshida yo! Meiwaku Halloween” (Stop Troublesome Halloweens). To regulate traffic and crowd control, 125 security guards and 90 ward employees will be dispatched. Luup rental kick scooters and electric bicycles will not be available for rental or return from 17:00 on October 30, until 5:00 on the morning of November 1.
Shibuya also enacted a year-round ordinance last year banning nighttime consumption of alcohol on the street, in parks and around Shibuya Station from 18:00 to 5:00, to prevent drunken-prompted nuisances in the neighborhood.
But the banning of Shibuya’s antics does not mean the end of Halloween. Whether you’re trying to escape crowds for a less overwhelming dress-up experience, looking for alternative parties, wanting to savor seasonal treats or searching for not-so-spooky family-friendly activities, there are plenty of options for every ghoul’s preferences.
