MEET YOUR ART FESTIVAL 2026

Oct 09, 2026 at 11:00am ~ Oct 12, 2026 at 8:00pm

Celebrating its 5th anniversary this year, MEET YOUR ART FESTIVAL is a cross-disciplinary art festival that brings together diverse cultures centered around art through a wide range of programs, including art exhibitions, art fairs, live performances, and markets. Last year, the festival collaborated with 150 artists and attracted more than 50,000 visitors. With Tokyo as its base, the festival has, over the years, showcased Japan’s diverse talent and forms of expression centered on art to audiences across Japan and the world.

This year, while further expanding both its scale and content, the festival will turn its focus toward new signs of culture emerging in today’s era. In our society that continues to accelerate, there are often-overlooked countertrends and shifts in values, as well as sensations and impulses that have yet to be put into words. By identifying and gathering the seeds of these changes, the festival will explore the future of our culture.
